I love the ease of the scanner but I am having a difficult time connecting my 16GB scanner to the wireless option for my Windows computer. I follow the instructions but I get a message saying my wireless LAN is turned off. I can not figure out how to turn it on.

The WiFi turns on when the scanner is turned on. It will turn off when the scanner turns itself off, or after 5 minutes of inactivity.
We have recently updated the Windows Installation procedure with a second page that might help answer your questions.

So easy, right out of the box! It had everything I needed to try it out immediately. The scans are perfect. The software for stitching and color correction work really well and are very easy to use!

I am excited to go to the blog for ideas. I toss it in my purse and take it everywhere. I show it off to everyone. I had it at the dental office this morning and they were blown away at what it can do

This is the best purchase I made last year! Love it! It has totally exceeded my expectations. I told my father about the Flip-Pal so he ordered one too! He’s 75 years old and is having a blast scanning and sending photos of his remote youth to his friends.

The Flip-Pal scanner is a productive tool unlike anything I’ve encountered before, and it is making everything easier for an historical society like us. The Flip-Pal is the first technological device I’ve actually been excited about and enjoyed using since 1987, when I first tried a computer.”
