Can't connect to 5D3 using TP-LINK - Frustrated!

Post by blusanders »

Howdy. Just got my TP-Link. Put the firmware on it. Can connect to DSLRController Wifi network no problem, but QDD will not see my camera. Just a dark screen when I open it. Just can't make it work. No clue how to troubleshoot it. Same thing with iPad app.

You flashed the wrong firmware.
OpenWrt firmware with the ddserver package is available here: https://dslrdashboard.info/downloads/
Instructions for flashing: https://dslrdashboard.info/tp-link-mr30 ... wrt-flash/
Instructions for updating: https://dslrdashboard.info/tp-link-mr30 ... e-upgrade/

As you already have OpenWrt on it you will need to download the 'sysupgrade' image and follow the update instructions.
