I'm getting a sync failed -100 error.

I can sometimes connect to the WiFi but then it will disconnect.

I have a Samsung Galaxy s3 and Cannon 900is

Hi Steve,

The Galaxy S3 and S4 both have an 'Auto Network Switch' option that can interfere with the ability to connect to the Eye-Fi network from your device. You can disable this option easily enough.

To do this:

Open your phones settings
Press the Menu button on the phone
Select Advanced and scroll down to the Auto Network Switch option
Uncheck the Auto Network Switch option

Once you've turned that off, just take a few photos and your S3 should connect to that Eye-Fi network without giving you that error. Just keep in mind that if your Touchpad is also nearby when you try to connect the S3 to the Eye-Fi network, it might transfer to the Touchpad first (if you specifically want to sync the photos to the S3, just force close the Eye-Fi Labs app on the Touchpad and it wont auto-connect to the Eye-Fi network).

That seemed to work. This would be some nice help text to add in.
