Yes you are quite correct the 600D does have this wireless facility built in.
Have you set the Transmission Channel on both the camera and speedlight to the same number.
I know it's rather obvious, but you do have the onboared flash raised when attempting wireless flash?
The settings are a little different to the camera I use (7D) and are meant to be easier to use
This is the sequence to use in the camera flash control menu for basic wireless flash.
Select "Evaluative" press set button
Select "built in flash setting" remember to press the set button
Select "easywireless" again remember to press the set button
Set the same channel number, making sure you use the same channel on your external flash.
The reason I emphasise "remember to press the set button" is because I sometimes forget this important bit.
