Wi-Fi setup

This guide is intended to provide a Wi-Fi connectivity to Cyanview devices:

  • CI0 : to control a camera over Wi-Fi (Blackmagic, etc.) schema 1
  • RIO : to get internet using Wi-Fi
  • RCP : to connect to a LAN using Wi-Fi schema 2
  • IP/Ethernet Camera : to control it over Wi-Fi (PTZ, BGH1, etc.) schema 3

You have various way to achieve that, the one presented here is using a TP-Link Nano Router.

Setup​

You can find the documentation here

  • [step 1] Connect your TP-Link to its USB power supply
  • [step 2] Connect your device to the Ethernet port of the TP-Link
  • [step 3] Check on the sticker to find the SSID/Password and connect to it with your laptop
  • [step 4] Navigate to http://tplinkwifi.net/ and login using the password (default is admin/admin)

Now, you should set up the TP-Link in Client mode:

  • It will connect to a Wi-Fi AP
  • And act as a bridge between Ethernet and Wi-Fi

You should ensure to set up this parameter:

  • Connect the TP-Link to the good Wi-Fi AP
  • Mode should be Client
  • Keep Smart IP to have the bridge mode

Your setup should look like this:

After validating, the TP-Link will reboot, you will be disconnected and the setup is applied.

Now every device plugged to the Ethernet will be accessible over Wi-Fi.
