But if you use desktop PC, probably it does not have any Wi-Fi module, so you need to buy one and install it. Please note – if you use notebook, you already have the needed Wi-Fi hardware. So I have enabled the Wi-Fi module built into my PC’s motherboard.

In addition I prefer setting up a dedicated Wi-Fi network, just for Fuji, network I enable when needed and disable when not needed. But my PC is connected with cable to the switch, so the Wi-Fi communication between X-Pro2 and my PC didn’t work. So if we have a PC connected via Wi-Fi to the access point, it should work fine. I have observed this problem when PC was connected to the external switch as well as when the PC was connected with Ethernet cable to the switch built into the access point. It seems to be very similar to the Nikon UT-1 with WT-5 – in both cases I observed the same problem. I have checked it on my own – if X-Pro2 is connected to the access point but the PC is connected with Ethernet cable to the switch and then from switch to the access point, the communication will not work. When we use the existing home network, one thing is very important: due to poor Wi-Fi implementation in X-Pro2, both X-Pro2 and the PC must be connected directly to the same access point. For this purpose we can use either a home Wi-Fi or… we can create separate Wi-Fi network, served by the PC instead of home Wi-Fi access point and dedicated just for Fuji data transmission. I know that some people have issues establishing the connectivity with existing network, so here are some instructions, discoveries and thoughts.įirst thing: what network to connect to? This article is limited (by design) to only one option: transmitting the data from the body to the PC. I definitely prefer using Wi-Fi for this task. I use this option all the time as I don’t like removing cards from the body, guessing what is on which card, shuffling them in the reader.

X-Pro2 connects to the existing Wi-Fi network and uses it to transmit pictures / movies to the PC.

The hot-spot created by X-Pro2 is open access hot-spot, so if there is anybody with Wi-Fi – enabled device close to us, he / she can “hear” what we transmit. While connected, it works quite well, but please remember: the Wi-Fi implementation used in X-Pro2 gives no security at all.

This option is suitable if we want to use smartphone or tablet to control the camera and/or to download pictures and movies to the phone or tablet. X-Pro2 enables the Wi-Fi and works as access point.Fujifilm X-Pro2 gives us the ability to use Wi-Fi for communication.
