X100V question

I am a new user to the X100V coming from the X100S. Which did not have a wireless option.

I used the wireless connection on the V which I had some difficulty with.

My question is

1) can I turn the wireless of as the camera takes a lot of time to search for a connection.

2) If possible can I just turn the wireless off & yet keep the settings for when I wish to use it.

I think I am doing something wrong  & the manual does not seem to address this.

any help appreciated

Re: X100V question

In my experience the wireless capability and the Fuji Camera Remote app are worthless.   My advice is turn it off and keep it off if you want to avoid a lot of frustration and wasted time.
