This was one of my pet peeves with the T6s when I had it (and one of the many reasons why I ended up going with the 70D instead).

Canon basically left that entire option off the wifi menus. Notice there are only 5 icons on the menu? The 6th one was the EOS utility option that, among other things, allowed you to download pics to a pc.

A work around is to send all your photos to your Google Drive and if you are running the Google sync utility on your PC, Google Drive will sync the photos to your pc.

The EOS utility simply doesn't work with the T6s/i. Canon should have at least allowed the utility to download pics via wifi and just disabled the remote shooting part. Kind of petty on Canon's part IMO.

Unfortunate you didn't figure out how to download pics to a PC from the T6s because this is how it's done.

You CAN use Wi-Fi to transfer your pictures from your T6s/T6i to your computer.

Press: Menu>wench1>Wi-Fi/NFC choose "enable"

Go back to the menu, select "Wi-Fi Function

Select the monitor picture, "View images on DLNA devices"

You are given 3 options, Choose "find network", OK is then highlighted, select it.

Your camera then looks for wireless networks, and produces a list. Select your network, and hit "ok".

At this point, it asks me to enter my network password:
1. Enter 8-63 ASCII charactors
2. Enter 64 hexadecimal char.
If you have chosen a different level of security for your wireless network, things will be different.

You are presented with a mini keyboard, enter your password, select "ok"

The next page is "ip address set", select "auto"

After a few seconds of "busy", you get the "Connection" screen.

That's it, you're connected to your network. Two options are listed:

1. Disconnect, exit --select when your done
2. Confirm set. --select gives you access to 4 pages of your network connection settings.
Put the camera down, go to your computer. Windows 10, should be similar for others

1. select window (start) button>"file explorer"
2. select "this PC" from the list.

Under "network locations" there is a black, square icon, with the letters "EOS" Labeled, "Canon EOS Rebel T6s"
Double click the EOS icon and then "SD folder">> "100 canon" >>(numbered picture folders. That's it, your pictures. Once you setup your connection you can choose it again without entering all the info over again.

I've just tried your method. It works but only for JPEG's! The only method I've found that works for Raws too is using a program called Airnef (works for canon cameras too)
