They'll need a modem upgrade.What happens with older cars that are 3G only, when Telstra decommissions 3G in 2024?
Tesla may well pay for the upgrade by then....That's one reason why I upgraded to MCU2.
A modem (assuming it's modular) is probably a $50 part.Tesla may well pay for the upgrade by then....
Wouldn't you just make the phone a WiFi hotspot? Or would that be too annoying to manually connect to it every time you engaged Drive?Thinking about it a bit out of the box, what would it take for some phone app to be written to make a 3G hotspot for the car to connect to? Assuming the phone was capable of 3G, that is.

I thought the car turned its Wi-Fi off whenever it was in drive. That would make using your mobile hotspot impossible.
This is not a Tesla story, but... we bought our Nissan LEAF in 2014, and its Telematics system was 2G and ran on Telstra. Telstra closed 2G in December 2016, as a result, the LEAF Telematics went off the air. Nissan arranged for warranty replacement of the TCU to a 3G version, but it took them a few months for them to get around to it.What happens with older cars that are 3G only, when Telstra decommissions 3G in 2024?
Nissan have decomissioned carwings in the last few months.

Whether they will do this again for free when 3G closes (and whether they will even make a 4G TCU for a 2012 LEAF) is another matter.
Carwings was dead for a month or so, but I got on Nissan’s case and they brought it back online in January (although it still doesn’t work properly). It’s possible they didn’t even know it was offline - they don’t seem to invest much time and effort into keeping it running. Login to Carwings is possible again, trip stats can be downloaded again, but the realtime operational stuff (reporting battery charge, remote starting of AC or charging) still doesn’t work. It’s always been flaky at best.Nissan have decomissioned carwings in the last few months. Leaf telematics are dead.
The screen won’t tell you. What car do you have and when was it made? All Model 3s in Australia have 4G cellular connectivity.I have no idea what "G" my car is - is there a way of finding out from the screen? I have to start subscribing next month for the service - do they come up and ask me?
