I am trying to get qDslrDashboard to work with my V2 TL-MR3040 and a D810. This is on a 64 bit Windows 7 system.
I started by flashing the firmware for the 3040 with the version from http://dslrdashboard.info/download/ddse ... tory-0-13/ and then set it up as described on http://blog.alanlawrencephotography.com ... s-than-40/
I was then able to connect (wirelessly) to the 3040's access point.
I then downloaded and extracted the dslrdashboard application from http://dslrdashboard.info/download/wind ... 5-1-x64-2/ and ran the vcredist_x86(x64).exe without any errors.
I connected the camera to the 3040 (set to 3G/4G) with my USB3 cable and turned camera and 3040 on and waited for the 3040 to complete its startup.
I launched the qDslrDashboard.exe program and got the connection screen. Nothing happened when I clicked on the 'Network Button'.
When I connected the camera and PC directly (with the same USB3 cable) it all worked fine - after I had followed the instructions for installing the USB drivers at http://dslrdashboard.info/?page_id=180
Any ideas?

What am I doing wrong?
Re: What am I doing wrong?
Flash both FW images to MR3040 (factory and sys-upgrade).
Then setup WiFi on router and after launching qDD app, press and hold network button until window with an IP field pops up. Chech if IP is correct and click OK.
If nothing happens then check in router logs if camera is recognized.

Thanks GonzoG, your reply is spot on correct!
I did stumble upon the 'press and hold Network button' solution last night (it was one of those "Connect, damn you, connect!" moments that led to the long press).
I didn't get round to updating my post because I found a few more issues that were distracting me. I won't list them here - I'll make new posts instead.
I do have a question about your reply though: You recommend flashing the 'sys-upgrade' image as well. I haven't done this but it seems to be mostly working (apart from the issues alluded to above) and I haven't been able to find a description of what the upgrade actually does (or even when you need it). Can you point me to a document that explains it? I'd be very grateful.
Thanks again for taking the time to reply!!!

Exact same gear and can't get it to see my D810. Did you get it to work?
