Are you able to connect with any other network such as a wireless printer?

After you try to connect to your camera, do you see a little Canon icon in the top left hand corner of your wireless settings? If you do, tap on that little icon.

Other than that, I don't have any other ideas I can offer you.

Thanks. I easily connect to my normal wifi network (it's the default network on my phone). I'll try your second suggestion a bit later.

I could be wrong, but my thinking here is that even though your are connecting the camera and the phone wirelesslely, you are not going through your router; which would be kind of cool if you are out in the field somewhere. (I personally haven't tried that yet).
