This thing is still finicky as heck for me. 90% of the time it flat out doesn't work when I get in the car. Lately, it's been the car not being able to join the T2C unit's wifi, either saying that it couldn't obtain an IP address or flat out prompting me for the password (again and again), but never actually connecting. Perhaps it's due to these wifi issues, but my car doesn't seem to auto-join the T2C SSID (perhaps because I can't manually join anyway). What's everyone's flow for getting in the car and having it work? I've tried leaving it on, turning it on, connecting the phone to the unit via bluetooth manually, etc. There's no rhyme or reason to it - except the latest thing, where it will not work for 99% of the drive, but will suddenly pop into action as I pull into my freakin neighborhood.
1) I sit in the car and my T2C boots up - takes ~45 secs.
2) Bluetooth on my phone connects to the car first.
3) Then CarPlay on my iPhone starts up (iPhone splash screen).
4a) Then the AutoKit SSID becomes visible and the car joins it automatically and page loads.
4b) Sometimes I'll have to select the teshpush bookmark to load the CarPlay view.
Tips:
The "can't obtain IP address" can be due to the hotspot not starting up properly, make sure that is enabled ok.
Also try to delete the AutoKit wifi connection between T2C and car and rejoin again, remembering to set "allow wifi when driving" for the connection.
I have found it simplest to have AutoKit as the only wifi network the car knows so it won't get confused.
The Tesla will switch off wifi if it can't find a network to join before you start driving - make sure wifi is switched back on as you drive.
If the wifi has connected ok you may need to reload/refresh the browser for the
https://tespush.com url.
To get the sequence reliable it helps to just wait until CarPlay has started before putting the car into Drive.
If it is still funky then delete the CarPlay connection (bluetooth and wifi) and re-pair the bluetooth connection to AutoKit.
Let me know if any of this helps.
