Can I set up the system without Wi-Fi? I am trying to get it to use the internet on my phone and it won't connect.

You dont need wifi, but the base station needs to plug into router/switch/modem. The base station creates its own wireless network. which the cameras connect to.

It needs to have the base plugged into an ethernet port.... If you don't have wifi/router then you can use a celluar hotspot with a port.

 

Off your phone it  isn't going to happen ( if your thinking thethered )
