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).

I have no idea whether this connection is supposed to go through my router, which is sitting a few feet away from where I've been trying to connect. But from a theoretical standpoint, if it did need that (or another) router to connect, then it couldn't be used in the field and I've never read of any such limitation.
