NX-2020 Wi-Fi woes

[Al D-Much]

First world problem I know, but......
How do I get the damn car to automatically pick up my iPhone's hotspot and connect when I get in the car?
Every time I get in, it's a case of re-establishing the connection, with no way of saving it, or making it a favourite.

Not the end of the world, but rather frustrating. 

Whoops, also, I'm a new member, hello!

Hi and welcome. Mine’s an older one so I can’t help. I’m sure someone else will be along to help soon though 😀

I believe you do it on the phone, not the car.  I’ll check later. 

Excellent, thanks Don

Thanks Don, I’ll give it a go

Hi Don,

Unfortunately, it worked once, but not now, Iphone locked or unlocked, hotspot on, the NX just doesn’t connect unless I add it as a preferred network again.

Then I just end up with 5-6 preferred networks, all Iphone!!

Nope, simply won’t remember the WiFi hotspot on the phone and have to link it every single time. Absolute rubbish, so disappointing

Hi after reading this thread, I thought i'd try mine and I have the same issue. I turn on my hotpsot on my Iphone and make sure anyone can join. I then set up the wifi on the car and it connects fine. All good so far. Turn off car, turn on car and it doesn't connect!. I have the latest software on this system as they did it when i purchased it last month (it's a 2018).

Don't understand why some people seem to hold/remember the wifi and some of us it just won't reconnect automatically (yes this is all turned on and I can see the preferred saved hotspot in the car).

The infotainment promises so much but delivers a bad user experience imo.
