The great thing about wireless cameras is that they can be placed virtually anywhere around your home or business once they are set up. All you need is a power outlet and you’re good to go. This of course gives you the freedom to place your camera in discreet locations which is ideal when using your camera for security purposes.
The setting up of any wireless Axis camera is a very straight-forward procedure and should only take a couple of minutes but the process can sometimes be jargon-filled and confusing for those who are non-technical. This is where this guide steps in to lend a hand.

It is suitable for the following cameras:
Axis 206W (now discontinued)
