Claim Text:
1. A smart device, the smart device comprising a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium containing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the smart device to: communicatively couple to a wireless access point when the smart device is configured to operate as a wireless station, the wireless access point communicatively coupled to a set of cameras; receive, from a user, a selection of a first subset of the set of cameras, the first subset of cameras comprising a plurality of cameras; receive, from the user, a first configuration setting for the first subset of cameras; establish a wireless connection with each of the first subset of cameras such that the smart device is communicatively coupled to every camera in the first subset of cameras simultaneously; configure the first subset of cameras based on the received first configuration setting; receive, from the user, a selection of a second subset of the set of cameras, the second subset of cameras comprising a plurality of cameras different from the first subset of cameras; receive, from the user, a second configuration setting for the second subset of cameras, the second configuration setting different from the first configuration setting; establish a wireless connection with each of the second subset of cameras such that the smart device is communicatively coupled to every camera in the second subset of cameras simultaneously; and configure the second subset of cameras based on the received second configuration setting.
