If you own a wifi adapter pls. try to connect the camera with the software (will not work), and upload the log file this log file may help me to figure out how the wifi controling works.

This is using the official nikon android app for the wireless adapter.
I'll try downloading with digi cam this evening and send log.

You can create a screen shoot on avaiable network devices (Computer->Network) too?

All day reading about WU-1A adapter, i have bad news this adapter isn't officially support PC connection.The good part this adapter use PTPIP so can be easylly controled if window recognize it somehow.

you could connect a wifi adapter to the camera, which would be interesting. i just thought the data itself might help even with wired connection.

actually, with wifi support, users with laptops always have a wifi adapter avail. would allow a greater distance from the camera.
the android DSLRDASHBOARD supports connecting to the camera's wifi adapter as well as usb.

just wanted to clarify, the wu-1a acts as a wireless access point, any wifi device can connect to it, just cant control it without software to send commands.
