Hi peter missed the type of Dslr you have ?

I see you are direct connecting it to camera ....we are doing it wirelessly !

We are using a canon 5d mark 2 and 3 we plug the firmware hacked tplink MR3040 into the the USB port on the camera using the cable that came with the camera .....some people have used NON OEM cables and have reported issues.

I have a 60D. It's compatible and worked fine for a time. I suspect they have done a bug fix that maybe casing me issues. the host cable worked fine for a while.
I don't think it's the cable as I can still access the DSLR gallery with it. Just the controller side of the app fails to find the camera.
As I read maybe I have a cfn setting that is causing interference. I'll try resetting to defaults and see what happens.

Yes it sounds like when they have done a bug fix they have made another bug in the App.
Is it version 1.07 Android version you are using ?

For anyone looking for the apps and programs look below.

Link below to the Andriod ,Windows, Mac and Linux versions.

For the IOS version try Apple App Store look for Qdslrdashboard

The Andriod app you are using is it Dslrdashboard or Qdslrdashboard ?
Also what version is the app ?

The version Qdslrdashboard 1.07 has ony been out from August 2nd and has to be downloaded from the link ..

For other people it is not in the Google play store !

You have to give permission to install non play store apps in the settings of your android tablet

Hi Peter,
Ok now I know the App you are using I have the 2 Apps on. My Android tablet but Qdslrdashboard works the Best !

It is free !
However I am using a Tplink MR-3040 firmware hacked router and not a cable !
So much fun using it we did a big photo shoot and ony used the camera control to switch the camera on and all flashes worked and we could view all images on the Android tablet including raw .

Just to let everyone know if you have flashed your Tp-Link MR-3040 with dslrcontroller it will not work with Qdslrdashboard .


If you Want to use Qdslrdashboard you have to flash it with the firmware from the link below.

http://dslrdashboard.info/downloads/

With this version you can if you have a Sony,canon,Nikon with wifi connect and use it remotely with Qdslrdashboard .....

Dslrcontroller can not do this ! only Qdslrdashboard can !

If it is a new Tp-Link MR-3040 router and it is the model with 2 Switches use the firmware V0.2-13 factory image !

With this version then you can buy the app for your ipad from the Apple App Store about $12 ... At the moment it has a problem working on IOS 8 ...they have fixed it and awaiting for the new one to be okayed by Apple then it will be able to be downloaded.

For Android ,Mac pc or Linux it is free see link Below.
