If [Wi-Fi] is set to [Enable], even when the camera is connected to a computer, printer, GPS receiver, or other device via an interface cable, the device cannot be used (p.17).
Wireless LAN Notes If the transmission rate drops, the connection is lost, or other problems occur when using the camera with a wireless LAN, try the following corrective actions. Access Point and Antenna Installation Location When using indoors, install the device in the same room that you are shooting. Install the device higher than the camera. Install the device where people or objects do not come between it and the camera. Install the device as close to the camera as possible.
Wireless LAN Notes Security Wireless LAN radio waves can be easily intercepted. For this reason, we recommend activating encrypted communication in the access point settings. Connecting with an Interface Cable When [Wi-Fi] under the [53] tab is set to [Enable], interface cable connection is disabled. Set it to [Disable] and then connect an interface cable. When the camera is connected to a computer, printer, or any other device via an interface cable, settings for [Wi-Fi] cannot be changed.
