To connect to home wifi swipe down from settings on the Sensus screen and tap communication > wifi, connect car to mobile hotspot. Tick the box. Car should search for networks. Select your network and enter your password. Car should connect. If it doesn't it could be because you are out of range of the home router or you may have to change the security settings on the router. (I had to do this).

This is something I'm interested in too. I have the Three free 200mb data sim. It works OK. I got mine at the beginning of August and just had a look, got 87mb left. Question is how do you get the 200mb of free data. Does it renew monthly or when you have used all the data and how do you receive the data is it OTA in the car?

Thanks guys,
MikeGMT reading it looks like it renews each month, but my question is do you nerd to be with Three currently? And silly question,, if you get a data sim with them does that effect calls to your car on your paired mobile number. Reason I ask is I would think you get a number with the sim? Thanks Quote:

No need to be a Three customer - just go to the following link and order a card:
https://www.three.co.uk/free_sim_mbb/order Once the SIM comes it needs to be "activated" - I did this by putting it in my phone and connecting to the internet with it, where it took me to a registration/activation page. Once this is done, pop it back out of the phone and then into the SIM holder. You then need to go into settings-communication-car modem (or similar) and tick a box, and your car will then use the boot SIM for data. The 200Mb automatically renews each month, and if you do use up too much (tip - ensure maps updates automatically is turned off somewhere so you don't blow it all in one update) it simply stops connecting to the internet - no charges whatsoever. There are other threads on here about the SIM card and accessing the boot SIM holder, which is a bit of a pain from memory as its under the boot floor towards the rear seats somewhere
