Prerequisites
Canon camera with wireless function.
CanonDCS71W.exe software installer.
Wireless access point.
Camera and PC connected to same network.
Process
After successful CanonDCS71W.exe software installation, camera cannot find the PC.
Canon WiFi Connection setup is successful or “already set”
But no matter what you do, camera cannot find the PC.
It turns out “media streaming option” is not turned on.
All you need to do is turn this on and your Canon camera WiFi can find your PC.
Good luck! Happy taking pictures!
