The device that will act as the remote-control(Ipad) for the camera (QX10) has to be connected to the internet to upload or sync photos as they are taken from the remote camera. The challenge is that the ipad has to connect to the QX10 as a client. Is is possible to have the QX10 and ipad connect to the same access point and they would still communicate? so ideally can the QX10 be a client and not the access point on the network?
With the Sony QX1 the device is only able to act as a WiFi access point, there is no (publicly documented) capability to make it a client. I'd be staggered if the QX10 was any different.
