NIkon Wifi
Hello,
 
I’m trying to use the wifi feature on my D5300 Nikon camera and it just doesn’t work.
 
When I put wifi on with my camera D5300, I never saw "waiting for connection" mentionned at 01:35 in this video. See here a video I recorded showing the issue.
 
Also my phone doesn't found any wifi related to my camera (wifi turn enable). I'm sad, can't use the wifi.
 
JM

got to make sure your in area that has wifi if not camera and phone will not read each other. i found that out. once you find how to get both to read each other your good to go. just have to recall how you got them to read each other. only issue i had with was with this issue. last year i took pictures of local hooters girls for Halloween instead of doing right away and taking card out and putting on laptop. i did wifi thing. found out it took my full jpg and full raw files and crop them down to really low resolution picture that looked way to bad. since i could compare quality of them. did not like way photo or camera made my pictures get crop down to really bad resolution pictures i showed people at store and buddies and we are not sure why it happen this way. so for now on will only take off memory card to laptop for pictures. so will have to wait in till i get camera body with snap bridge to see if works better or not.

Yes in an area with wifi at every try. I'm pretty good technology. I think it's an issue from Nikon they will probably lose me forever and switch family. That's unfortunate, cause I was with Nikon from the beginning.

As the wifi connection is peer-to-peer and not infrastructure, whether you are in an area with wifi or not is immaterial.

When using an android device, the instructions on page 169 in the manual work. WPS pairing is, by far, the most stable of the options.

If you use a device of the fruity persuasion, the instructions on page 171 should be foolproof.

I have similar issues. I have a D5300, an iPhone and an Android tablet.

I installed the Nikon Wireless Mobile Utility on both the iPhone and in the tablet.

For each I followed the manual pp 217 through 220, and If ollowed the instructions for setting up the camera ("enable").

I get a continuous message "waiting for connection". But no connection us established and the "smart device" (both of them) do not connect to the camera.

The app tells me to check the smart device network settings...

Again, I tried this in both following the instructions.

Any ideas? Thank you. Elya
