2021 P300e SE R-Dynamic
What I'm trying to do:
I'm trying to run CarPlay from my phone (iPhone 13 mini) using mobile data rather than the car's Wi-Fi, as the Wi-Fi is so bad.
Why:
I bought the car as a new approved about 2 months ago and the infotainment has been really disappointing. CarPlay would never connect when I entered the car, I always has to restart the phone for it to connect. I then subscribed to the Land Rover internet thingy, and while the CarPlay connects everytime, I can't access Spotify, Apple Maps, live updates on Google Maps and use the 'New' (formerly browse) function on Apple music.
The solution?:
Yesterday, I got a notification on my phone that it couldn't connect to Wi-Fi, did I want to use mobile data for CarPlay? I pressed yes and it was amazing, everything worked perfectly. The 5G symbol was on the top right of the CarPlay rather than the Wi-Fi sign so I know it was working from 5G.
The problem:
If I switch my phone's Wi-Fi off, it won't connect to the car. I can't seem to connect to the car without Wi-Fi, but I know it can be done because I did it yesterday. I've watched so many videos on YouTube and searched this forum, and I can't find a solution.
There is a beer in it for whoever can help me out.
