Powershot XS620HS WiFi Connectivity

Is something I'm doing wrong or do I have to re-establish my WiFi connection everytime I turn the camera on?

Or, is there a way to automate this; Set it and forget it; Connects automatically???

Looking forward to good advice.

That behavior may be by design.  If you are not actively using Wi-FI, then you will want to keep it disabled.  Having Wi-Fi active anytime the camera is turned on would probably drain battery power fairly quickly.

Thanks, Waddizzle,

I hadn't thought of that.  Makes sense now.
