WiFi Speed?

[PRspawn]

Can folks post their in-car WiFi speed if they have measurement apps? I'm connecting at 3-5 MPS in areas where my phone connects 50+ (Long Island, NY).

It was a bit better than that but not much. Worse than tethering with my phone. I don’t see the point of using it unless you want a separate plan for kids on iPads in back so you don’t burn through your normal data plan.

3.5 MPS.
Speaking of kids on iPads, the Wifi service comes with free Warner Brothers streaming TV. I'm surprised they don't advertise that more. 10 channels of live streaming plus an on-demand library.

Garbage speeds... I get 8 max but from what I understand you need it enabled for Alexa, marketplace, etc to function properly. And I'd rathe rmy kids connect to that than my phone. I like to save my tethering data for my work and laptop.

I’m thinking the same about tethering…

Question, my hotspot is still not working and I think Jeep is working on it…. When you setup your hot spot and put name then password does it show your password after you enter and go back? Mine just says NULL.

Mine says NULL but it works.

I really don’t see the benefit of that the vehicle WiFi. Everyone in my family has their own iPhone and we have an unlimited data plan. We can use any one of those phones as a hotspot if needed.

Do you have a weather app in your setting screen and does that work?

Yep. Weather screen is there and works well. All of a sudden I can now overlay radar maps on my nav route as well.

Looks like some OTA features coming out!

Are you using 8.4 or 10" displays?

10.1"

Yep. Looks that way. I also got Alexa and Google Voice updates today.

Did the system tell you it was updating or you happened to notice a change?

 

[PRspawn]

I took everyone's advice and just added tethering to my phone. 76 MPS for an extra $5 month vs 3 MPS for $20 was a no-brainer!

Just noticed them. They took away the off-road pages in mine as well which sucks
