CarPlay integration is a feature bundled into the infotainment in many cars that requires an "external network connection". It will not work if you disable the "external network connection".
- TeMPOraL 3y agoWhy on Earth would it need that? It's supposed to enable integrating your car and your phone. Surely that should mean local network connection.
- kube-system 3y agoWifi is a network external to the vehicle. An internal network would be something like CAN. Whatever the case, my point is that a good solution is probably not quite as simple as phrased above.
- TeMPOraL 3y agoA WiFi router built into the car is something I'd classify as internal networking for the purpose of this thread.

- numpad0 3y agoI'd argue in-car LAN is an internal network connection. And garage door control etc. are "local area" networks.
- kube-system 3y agoFair. I'm saying that if these features are 'arguably' legal under a proposed law, that law needs to be refined.
