Q: 6. Can the wifi adapter connect directly to a kindle tablet or is a router needed. I shoot with a 7d mk2. I use a CF card for RAW and a SD card for JPEG (same time). Looking to leave my laptop home and just carry my tablet. At end of days shooting I would like to replace the SD card with this adapter and then transfer the picture from the CF card to my tablet for viewing. Can I do that with this adapter? Is a wifi router needed as go between my tablet and camera?

A: You can connect directly to the W-E1 card directly as it creates its own hotspot. There is an option to use a local network but have not found this to be an advantage. I also shoot with a 7d mk2. I use a CF card which stores both RAW and JPEG. The W-E1 card remains installed in the SD slot.Using the Canon app on my iPad I can connect directly to the 7d and transfer the JPEG images images wirelessly. This is quite convenient to get a first look at the photos that I took, do basic corrections either with the Photos app or via the Lightroom app on the iPad, and then share. I do not believe there is an option to transfer raw to the iPad.Using the Canon EOS Utility on either my iMac or MacBook I can transfer the raw images wirelessly. These are then brought into Lightroom for processing.I do not believe that there is an app for the Kindle tablet but have not done a serious investigation as I do not have this device.Hope this helps.

Q: 9. Is anyone using this with IPS, VPN etc? heard it has performance hits, also heard some stability issues. Have these been resolved? anyone running this over months that can comment?

A: I have been running this router with IPS with no noticeable performance issues for the last several months. The IPS has gotten better with each update. I also use all/most of the parental controls/filters at different levels on my 25-ish devices. My CPU load does seem high, it runs about 3-4, but I don't notice any issues until it gets around 6-8. With the IPS is default, I seem to get a lot of false positive rejections, but I figure better safe than sorry.
