Sony cameras will only work with wireless connection using the Playmemories 'Smart remote control' camera application ( https://www.playmemoriescameraapps.com/ ... _00-F00002 )

- start the 'Smart remote control' application on your A6000
- connect your Windows machine wireless with the A6000 wireless
- start qDslrDashboard and press the 'Sony wireless' button

Do you use the latest version of the 'Smart remote control' application?
Is your PC also connected to another network?

I can only repeat again what I already wrote.
Just tested with a6300 and works without any problem.
- start 'Smart remote control' application on the camera
- connect the Windows wireless to the camera wireless
- start qDslrDashboard and press the 'Sony wireless' button.
