cworld network
Warning:
Do not turn off cworld or cfinder III and do not remove the USB drive while the update is in progress.
Doing so may damage cfinder III or result in firmware incompatibility.
Note:
In order to allow smooth operation please select the correct country you are located in under cworlds
Wifi hotspot settings.
The primary way to work with cworld is Wi-Fi which uses the 2.4 GHz frequency band and which is free
for use worldwide. Despite a worldwide availability the exact number of legally usable Wi-Fi channels
differs slightly from country to country. We respect those country restrictions by providing our users a
"Country" selection in cworlds "Wifi hotspot settings".
Even though using Wi-Fi Channel 11 (2.462 GHz) as default, which should be a worldwide
available channel, incompatibilities may still occur.
