# Sony FX6

You can connect to Sony FX6 camera via cabled Ethernet or Wifi. We **strongly** suggest to use cabled Ethernet.  
This will work with multiple FX6 cameras - they just need to have unique IP addresses.

#### Wired LAN setup

You need to enable Wired LAN in the camera settings:  
• Menu > Network >  
\- Access Authentication > Input password > set new password  
\- set Wired LAN = ON  
\- set Remote Control = ON

Also, you must set a static IP address:  
• Menu > Network > Wired LAN > Detail Settings >  
\- DHCP = OFF  
\- Enter static IP / Subnet / Gateway

#### USB-C to Ethernet adaptor

To use cabled Ethernet, you need a "USB-C to Ethernet adaptor".  
It is critical that you use an adaptor with compatible chip-set:

- Realtek RTL8153
- AX88179

Note: There are many other adaptors not working. They can even crash the FX6. This includes a chip-set with similar name; AX88179**A** - (has an A at the end) which does NOT work.

Here is an example of a working adaptor from a Danish webshop (availability of this product may expire):

Another product (this is NOT tested by us, but has correct chipset):
