Clearly we're talking about getting the update notification, which does not have anything to do with wifi.

When will my car get updates? Its been AGES already!

Exactly before any download we must have at least notification- download ready.
Note what I actually said. I got the notification for the update without WiFi. Then I knew to connect to WiFi to download the update.
My point was that you do not have to be connected to WiFi to get the notification.
SC doesn't control updates. If you can actually get a person at Tesla, they will tell you that they don't know and "wait."
Sorry about, that I missed it. I was getting frustrated that after OPs post (that was thoughtful & beneficial...I'd hoped) we were then up to five pages of people asking questions about when they were going to get updates and blah, blah, blah. Turns out I was doing the same thing by not reading your post carefully.
I really think that if people fully read his original post, there was no reason for anyone to add to it. I think one of the first replies was about being stuck still on factory firmware. I mean, UGH!.
The point I had about the OP is that I am not willing to sit patiently and quietly while Tesla decides when the car they sold me hobbled will actually get the features that I paid for.
My simple reply to that Is that I took delivery on June 9, 2021. That was exactly 100 days ago. I have received 2 Updates since delivery. So that would be an average of 50 days between updates. In those two updates, functionality that was sold to me as FSD and advertised with the car that I purchased has not been restored to the vehicle.
This is why I object to defending the crappy, opaque, manner that Tesla deals with updates. My patience is out. Another 30 days and I start looking for attorneys to discuss why a car company is allowed to sell you a vehicle, and then change that vehicle at delivery and not inform me as to why features that I paid for are not available.
I'm pretty sure there are a lot of Bolt owners discussing lemon laws with attorney's now, but I bet at least one is available.
You are in US and some US state ( I think) allowed FSD, but in Canada Tesla sell advertised FSD ( which not working) and government Canada ( regulators) not allowed FSD yet. That's what Tesla tech told me when I asked him why my FSD not worked.

Level 5 Self Driving is not licensed anywhere yet. But "FSD" as advertised and charged for by Tesla has specific features which were advertised as a capability when I purchased the package, were removed because they moved to "Vision Only" vehicles after I made my purchase, but prior to vehicle delivery. Some specific features as advertised remain non-functional because I don't have the appropriate software updates.
Due to the fact that other cars have the software updates and have this functionality restored to at least a usable/try-able level as advertised, I would expect Tesla to make good on sales promises. I'm not expecting Level 4 or 5 Autodrive, I am expected what they advertised in writing when I purchased my vehicle. Especially since they are able to deliver that to other vehicles that were sold subsequent to mine (as I can see proven by later VINs recording these updates), there is no excuse for them not to deliver to all the vehicles in question.
Calling out Fraud is not entitlement or venting. Fraud is defined as:
Representing one thing when you take a person's money, or promising things for a specific price and accepting money at that price, and failing to deliver... Fraud.
Plenty of screenshots of the Tesla site with their claims from April 18, when I reserved & ordered (which included credit inquiries, etc., so a full transaction) my vehicle. Items like
"your car will be continuously upgraded" [emphasis mine, words Tesla's] - which it is not
"Model Y gets better over time with frequent wireless software updates" - this time not continuous, but still 50 days average (now 52 days) is not frequent
"your parked car will come find you anywhere in a parking lot" - which it does not
"Model Y will alert you to available parking spots by continuously monitoring the space around you while driving under 15 mph." - It has done this once and then parked 22 inches from the curb. Never see the notification for available spots anymore.
Sentry Mode, which failed to work for the first 1.5 months due to software issues
Lastly, the listing for the charge and the features provided for that charge (the root of the fraud):
- Navigate on Autopilot - Works somewhat - valid
- Auto Lane Change - Works somewhat - valid
- Autopark - basically non-functional, told to wait for software updates - fraudulent representation
- Summon - basically non-functional, told to wait for software updates because of un-notified switch to Vision Only - fraudulent representation
If there weren't a separate and specific charge for the listed features, I would understand, but when you increase the price of the vehicle by 25%, you have to deliver what you promise. Calling that out is not whining, it is demanding that Tesla uphold their end of a contract entered into for consideration (in the form of $10,000).

Awesome! I'm approaching 60 days on 2021.3.104 myself, I just want that "remain connected to wifi" feature...
I wish you luck finding an attorney who won't laugh in your face.
Apparently someone has: Some Tesla owners are losing trust in Elon Musk's promises of 'full self-driving'
There's also a class action about deceptive advertising in California.
There's also a ruling against Tesla in Germany about deceptive advertising from 2020.
Not too laughable.
First: welcome to the Tesla family!
No need to stress - this is normal. 1st updates can come quickly (a day or two) or several weeks down the road. Mine came six weeks after delivery and I've heard of later.
You've got a lot of new things to learn on the car: the updates will come soon enough.
