Big New Update

[Funkyjuju]

my one-week old MY is still on 2021.3.105 with no update available yet

Same with me. I've had my LR 4 days. When I googled this version it seems like not many are on it. I hope we get an update to a newer mainstream version soon.

Ah, I read it backwards... I thought they were allowing you to create a hotspot in the car. Too bad.

Most of us probably have greater bandwidth on our phones with 5g and some places at&t isn't as good as Verizon or T-Mobile

Is the Tesla built in network on AT&T?

Yes

Yes

I thought I read AT&T was shutting off their LTE service to be 5g only sometime early next year? Wouldn't that be a BIG problem
for Tesla in the US?

If this is true, then we would have to pay to get a 5G module upgrade just like they’re currently upgrading 3G to LTE.

3g is shutting down then, not 4g which is lte. 4g isn't likely to go away for at least another five years, imo.

AT&T 3G is shutting down next year. 4G LTE is about 8 years newer than 3G and is still pretty useful considering the limited coverage and lower range of 5G. I would guess 4G will be around for around for about 10 more years.

4G/LTE is 'never' going away as 5G only works over a very limited distance. It would mean building massive amounts of cell towers all over the countryside to just maintain the same level of coverage.

BTW: 4G originally was really just an enhancement of 3G (higher data rates). Only in the USA it was called 4G as obviously a higher number is better Now the situation is more confusing as 4G covers a multitude of technologies and frequency bands.

Dammit Jim - where my 2021.24 update already?

 

[TomServo]

If it's any consolation Apple just pushed Bug Sur 11.5.2

 

[rjpjnk]

Still on 2021.3.104 here. Feeling neglected

hmm I dont know what you are reading, but next year I wouldn't expect more than 10% of AT&T customers to be on 5G phones. I could be wrong of course, but I suspect cutting off 90% of their customers from the network might not be the best business move.

You're right. I'm a dumb ass. It's 3g they're getting rid of, not LTE.....

Pinging this thread to see if anyone with 2021.3.105 has gotten an update. For the 2021.3.104 and 106 crews, there are reported cases of updates to `.4.18.x`.

I really like the car wash mode. My charging door used to open all the time while cleaning. The auto park will be fun to try sometime.
