download hangs after about 6 photos.

Post by The New Ontario Norm » Mon Apr 25, 2016 6:23 am

I am using Wu-1a wireless from Nikon D7100. When I get to about photo 6, the download hangs about 1/2 way through the transfer. It shows "Unable to write the data to the transport connection. An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host." I then have to close the program and re-open it. After I close the program, I get a box saying digiCamControl has stopped working, then I have to use Task Manager-Applications-End Program then go to Processes-End Process. If I don't do that, the program won't start and I get an error stating that WPFFont_v4.0.0.0 has quit working. BTW, my computer is running Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit. I know, it's old but it still works, kind of. And I can connect with my camera up to a distance of about 50 feet. How can I get the connection to stay working after about 6 photos. I should be able to shoot continuously. Is there a cache I should be emptying? I shoot NEF and High Quality JPEG and Save to Camera and computer. I have not been able to get the Astro settings to work yet. I get ERROR in the box and No external Device has been set. Still don't know how to use that section of the program yet.

More on my problem. It appears that my connection to the camera through the Wu-1a device drops off. I then (sometimes) can reconnect the wifi by clicking the wifi icon, clicking on Wu-1a, then click connect. Other times I have to double-click. There is a lot going on here, I think. It may just be my computer that is the problem. I'm almost tempted to buy a new one or just upgrade from vista to Windows 8.
