Since this discussion, when I read the "Wi-Fi Function Instruction Manual", it starts to become a little more clear. I found this little gem on p.18 which seems to explain it all: When you connect the camera to a Bluetooth-compatible smartphone via Bluetooth, you can establish a Wi-Fi connection by operating only the camera or the smartphone. Spectrum WiFi 6 2 Advanced In-Home WiFi Advanced In-Home WiFi is included on your Spectrum WiFi 6 router delivering internet, network security and personalization, conveniently managed with the My Spectrum App. Your router will have a QR code on the back label to indicate support of this service. With Advanced In-Home WiFi, you can: The fastest SD card for the Canon 6D is the SanDisk Extreme Pro 95MB/s UHS-I. Both the 64GB and 32GB cards tested provided the top write speed and greatest number of shots in 30 seconds. The Extreme Pro is capable of over 90MB/s write speed, but the 6D does not reach anywhere near the write speed potential of this card. Downloading the images from the SD cards will be faster than doing it over WiFi. Use Canon Image Gateway. The 6D doesn't have to act as a WiFi access point itself -- it can connect to your existing WiFi network. And it doesn't have to connect to your computer -- it can instead upload photos to online services via Canon Image Gateway. Canon EOS 6D, Sigma 50mm f/1.4 @ f/2.0, 10s, ISO 3200. It turns out the a 50mm lens, although rather narrow angle of view for astrophotography, works quite well at capturing the stars. This image is a stitch of three 10 second photos with the Sigma 5omm which made for an angle of view very similar to a 35mm lens.

Does Canon EOS 6D have Wi-Fi? Wi-Fi connectivity The EOS 6D is the first DSLR to provide this connectivity as a built-in feature, without the need for additional external accessories. The camera’s internal Wi-Fi transmitter supports 802.11b/g/n standards and, according to Canon, has a transmission range of up to 30m/98.4 ft. Mixed results 6D. Once, I got a solid connection and took a series of 10 shots. Then, I had trouble reconnecting. Also, it appears that the camera function panel is not live as it is in the Canon control program (Digital Photo Pro 4 and EOS utility for the Wifi connection). For example, I did not see any way to change from RAW+L to RAW+S. The wifi is run via a dual-band wifi router with 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz 8.02.11n wifi networks. I have had limited success setting up an EOS Utility connection to the 6D. The above technical discussion is more theoretical than experience based because in a month of owning this camera I have been successful only once in getting the camera to pair up In the US, the only model is the 6DWG (with the wifi and GPS built in). I got the 6D excited to use those features and never have - the GPS is a little quirky (you have to turn it on and off separately from the camera power, so if you forget, it will just stay on and drain the battery while in your bag). The wifi seems neat - it can create it's UmAUi.
