I have 2 C420 cameras, 1 H500 hub and 1 H200 hub. I found this article but don't have these settings to switch from using the Hub as an AP versus connecting directly to my WiFi.

any help would be appreciated.

  @griam01,

I would highly recommend limiting your discussions of the H500 to our beta forums until the device formally releases. I do not see the feature on my side either. However the C420 is a supported device due to its ability to be set up as a hub-connected device. See the difference of settings between a C420 and C225 below.

 

The C420 is a part of our Sub-G camera line, which were never designed to connect to your normal Wi-Fi and were always shipped with an H200. I believe that the camera will always use one of your hubs - whether it be an H200 or H500.ee9a1bc797884cbcb717728bbbbda9a2
