Hello, everyone. I am super excited by the prospect of being able to do holy grail timelapse shooting using a wireless tablet. I downloaded DslrDashboard and have my Canon 5D3 working well when connected via OTG cable.
However, I am having problems getting the 5D3 working wirelessly using a TP-Link TL-MR3040 v2 and flashed it per the online instructions. I plug the router into the camera and connect my Nexus 7 to the network, and start DslrDashboard. I click on the button that connects to OpenWRT, accept the default ip address, and whatl I get is a drop-down notification that shows a Canon 5D Mark III (it clearly sees it). I can't take any action, though. After around 10 seconds, the camera indicator goes away, and there is no further notification even after repeated attempts to connect. A reboot of the router allows me to get the camera dropdown to show up again.
Has anyone here successfully gotten DslrDashboard to work with a Canon 5D3 through a TP-Link wireless router?
Thank you!
