[QUOTE="nickt, post: 599126, member: 4923"] So when you try to connect, it wants a password? It should definitely be 'open' with no password required. Here is what I learned.... It may not help you though, but I might as well wright it down... The camera wifi is open. But once you are connected, in the wmu app, you can change the camera to a secured network and add a password. This is done from your phone while it is connected to the camera but the changes are saved in the camera. You would need the password to connect to the camera in the future although your phone should remember it. I guess the purpose of this is to keep nearby persons from accessing your camera. If you get locked out, the reset network settings menu in the camera is used to put it back to open since you cant do it from the app if you are locked out. If indeed you are being asked for a password, that would suggest that the reset network settings you tried in camera didn't work. If that is the case, maybe a full camera reset would help. Without connecting, I think you can long click on the camera wifi in your phone and see properties to confirm it is open or secured. My phone says no internet under the nikon wifi only before I connect. [/QUOTE]
