Introdução
This guide takes you through how to replace the WiFi board on the camera. Note that not all Canon 70D cameras have WiFi. If your camera does have WiFi, there will be a (w) after the model name on the label on the bottom of the camera.
Note that the Phillips #000 screwdriver is marked as an optional tool as you can always use the JIS #000 screwdriver in its place (JIS screwdrivers won't damage Phillips head screws).
