unsure of how to connect to camera

Open jonbjohns opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Hello,

I'm a bit confused on how to actually connect to the camera. I turn on the wifi functionality and it gives an ssid and password to connect, but the only arguments I see to pass to the shell is address and port.

When you connect to the camera's wifi network (using your OS's wifi connection management , the usual way), camera will auto assign you an ip address via dhcp. In all the firmware versions i've seen , the ip address of the camera is always 10.100.1.1 while the one assigned to the computer is probably 10.100.1.100 .

In other words, when you connect to camera's wifi network, you can just use the defaults in these scripts.

oh that makes sense. I wasn't sure if I had to connect directly or if the script did it automatically
