Can I transfer pics to a PC hard-wired to a wireless router?

Yes. You will momentarily have to "disconnect" from the wires connection to connect to the cards "wifi". It transmits a wireless signal that you connect to, then go to a browser and download your photos. The connection only let's you access the card, not the internet. After transferring, you'll then need to connect to your router to go online. So long as you have a wireless card, you can connect/disconnect from the card at your leisure.

I have not done this BUT, according to the setup manual:"...You will be able to access files from a USB external hard drive or thumb drive that is plugged into the router from your local network or from the Internet using either a web browser or an app for your smartphone or tablet..." so I don't why the other two respondeers said no to you.

Sure. But if your router is not PoE, you'll need to get a power supply to the camera for it to work.

We use this camera with a wireless router. We have learned the farther your camera is away from the router signal source the slower it operates. However, you can also connect directly to it using ethernet cable. Or, connect it to a modem/router using ethernet cable.

I have an ATT U-Verse router and a Netgear router hooked up to that, then this camera hooked up to my wireless network coming off the router. With some port forwarding on both routers, I was able to view my camera using my public IP address on other computers and my Android cell phones.

If you have a router that's not wireless you can plug the camera into the router by way of ethernet cable. If you have a wireless router then you can use the camera in wireless mode. Either way you would need Internet service to use the camera.

Yes. Your wireless router needs to be set up including port 81 which this camera uses. But it will work only on routers that sends and receives on the 2.7 Ghz frequency and the old wireless B or G. It won't with wireless N.

Yes, there is an antenna on the camera which you can set up to link with your wireless router at home over wi-fi. You can also use a wired connection. You have to get all the information about your home network including IP address, network SSID, and password. It is a good start to look at the instructions that come with the camera, using their software, just walk through the prompts and input the information as needed.

Dlink: yes/no. It depends on the distance and the materials the signal passes through. In my case the signal could not pass through two standard 2x4 wood studded walls over a distance of 30 feet. Yes you could use you laptop camera.

Although it isn't WiFi compatible, it's very easy to transfer photos to your computer in two ways. The first, which I prefer, is to simply remove the camera's SD card from it's watertight compartment and plug it into your computer's SD card slot. I think that every computer, from my four-year old desktop to my wife's brand new (only 1 month old) laptop, seems to have one of these slots. Then, the card appears as an additional drive and you can copy or move the photo files (jpg's) as you wish. The second method is to use the camera's battery charging cable inserted inside the same watertight compartment (and which ends in a USB plug, to insert either into the charging transformer or else into a computer's USB port) -- as the latter, the camera appears as an additional drive and ... [as above]. With either method, it's practically effortless -- and you don't need any special software settings (as you would with a WiFi). Hope this helped you.

Can someone tell me if the 8500 wireless has to be physically connected to a wireless router in order to receive wireless print projects?

Most likely yes. but it also depends on how far apart they are placed and capabilities of your PC and LED. it also has a USB port you could dump your media collection in your PC to USB drive or a USB hard drive and connect it to the router (thats what i did) . I could browse and run my media from any device in my network

Yes, pics can be transferred either via bluetooth (I bought a bluetooth dongle for my PC which plugs into one of its USB ports) or by saving pics to an (optional) SDHC card, which can be removed from the phone and put into an adapter for your computer. The bluetooth method is the easiest for picture transfer, since you just send the photos wirelessly to your PC. Keep in mind that the phone just has a 1.3 megapixel camera, so the resolution of the photos isn't the greatest on a big monitor.

I haven't tried that but the user guide says you can set up a wireless network to connect to photo sharing websites and to import photos wirelessly. I'm a little technology challenged but apparently the frame does have that capability.

I have not tried it. I just used Dropbox app to transfer all files to pc wirelessly. It's easier.

I'm assuming you already connected it physically with an ethernet cable to your router and was able to see the camera with the search tool?

Here's how you do it. 1. Plug camera into router. 2 Power up camera by plugging it in to the AC power. 3. Insert the CD into a computer that is also connected to the router via wireless or wired, and then let the program on the CD run. It will identify the camera, and then allow you to set it up for wireless. After it successfully set up for wireless, you can then unplug the camera from the router and place the camera wherever you would like to within range of your wifi.
