I recently baught a 6D and have managed to download the photos to a smartphone (LG G2) through EOS Remote. However, a second device, be it Galaxy S2 or S5, cannot find the camera. Is there any limitation to the wifi connection? Thanks!

You can only connect the smartphone when the 6D is in wifi setup mode. During the setup, there will be a time where it says "connect to phone". That's when you have to connect. Before you start using a specific phone with the camera, once the camera and phone have paired, the camera asks "connect this phone?" You have to say "yes". It's for security, I think.
Here are instructions.
