thereef510 that's an interesting concept going with the wired CarPlay. Let me know what you get. As maczrool mentioned, the initial contact is via BT, then once the car and phone sync up on CarPlay, the actual CarPlay functionality is done via WIFI. You'll still see the LTE or whatever cell connection. If you go to BT in the iPhone settings, itll show BMW DIRECT.

Random question, and I am not sure if it has any impact, but do you have WiFi Assist enabled under your cellular settings on the phone? I know that's one feature I shut right off since it kills my phone battery.
