Nikon D850 wireless function problem

5 years 7 months ago #598244 by Patrick G
What's going on with the wireless feature on the Nikon D850?  I'm trying to help a friend out and we can't get it to send the images.  Any hacks to getting this to work properly?

There is not nearly enough information here (for a problem statement) for anyone to be of any real use.

What, precisely, are you doing? Where are you trying to send images? What OS levels, etc, on the other device?

Yeah, and hopefully the user has read at least pertinent sections of the user manual?

Why so serious?

Sorry, I we can't get Snapbridge and the camera to see each other.

Since SnapBridge only works with the newer bodies that have Bluetooth built in, I can't comment much. My D750 uses regular wireless. And I find the feature to be completely uninteresting. Don't use it at all. Not that you asked.

Perhaps someone with a D850 will wander along in a while.

Try to reinstall the app

A buddy just tested this using SnapBridge on an Android 8 phone. BT connected fine. Wireless, never.

Since you still didn't provide specifics on what you're doing, one can only suggest using BT to connect the two devices. Or give up. SnapBridge is notorious for problems, apparently; google it.
