help needed to connect Canon 6D to iPad remote app

gwhib — Sat, 27 Jul 2013 13:09:43 GMT

I have the iPad EOS remote app and a Canon 6D I cannot get them to communicate, on the 6D wi-fi set up screen the manual tells you to select wi-fi function then shows a screen with different graphics on it so you can select mobile phone etc, well I cannot get this screen when I select wi-fi function I get the choice of EXIT or CONFIRM, nothing else, no selection screen, what am I doing wrong?.

Have you tried (successfully or not) to connect other devices to your 6D? Sometimes doing so can generate a network key conflict.

Thanks, it appears that if you have a router nearby or the iPad is normally connected to a wireless network it confuses it so the best method is to go down the end of the garden or some other isolated place and it connects every time, problem solved
