I purchased the S9500 a week ago and cannot get the WiFi to work. I called customer support and they told me they are aware of the issue and at some point in the future there will be a firmware update to correct the problem. Unfortunately they have no idea when. If WiFi is important to you when making a purchase, I suggest (what nikon suggested to me) you look elsewhere. They actually told me if I didn’t ike it, return it.
