The Tesla employee ought to have suggested the WiFi hotspot idea. Telling the guy to leech off a Starbucks connection is just weird. And the explanation about "imagining" how much an LTE update costs Tesla is also weird. Why not offer optional LTE map updates for an additional fee? I guess I hadn't thought much about how Tesla pushes software and map updates. WiFi makes sense but I would assume it doesn't work well for some people. I know my WiFi signal in my garage and driveway is quite poor due to the architecture of my house and I assume the large number of WiFi networks in my neighbourhood. And as far as the reasoning for why they can't offer it at their service centre -- seems like an issue easily solved by a QoS feature on a router.
