how to reset the password in my sony action cam HDR-AS15

[melovesushi]

Hi,

i need to reset the password on my sony wi-fi since doing a firmware upgrade i cannot connect to my samsung s3 throught wi-fi, can it be done as the samsung keeps rejecting the original password?

also where can i get a spare battery tray for my NP-BG1 batteries?

thanking you in advance for any help

Hi Melovesushi,

welcome to the Sony User Community Forum..:smileyhappy:

Have you tried deleting/forgetting the wifi network up on your Samsung S3 & setting the wifi connection up again.?

As far as I am aware if you connect your Action Cam to your PC via USB you can check the wifi SSID & Password by doing the following..

Start click on Computer..

In Computer click on the Action Cam..

Followed by Info, then WIFI In..

As to the spare battery tray I can't seem to find any stockists you could try contacting Sony Support to see if they can supply one - Contact Sony

If sony support can't help let us know & we'll see if we can get some further information on possibly stockists..

£39.99 does seem a expensive but it's often the case with some Sony parts, I remember the same thing with the stylus for the early readers..:smileyconfused:

You could always check Ebay or similar to see if there are any around, make sure you get the correct one though..:smileywink:

Hi,

My AS15 micro usb port just broken out after 3 months of daily use (Sony refused to repair it within guarantee and repair cost would be much as a new cam). Is there any way to get my wifi password ? (WIFI_INF)?

Tnx
