Introduction
Depending on equipment, some Infotainment systems can be used as aWi-Fi
hotspot to provide Internet access for up to eight Wi-Fi devices.
Some Infotainment systems can use theWi-Fi
hotspot of an external Wi-Fi device (Wi-Fi client) .
You need a data connection in order to connect to the Internet and use services such asWe Connect.
The Wi-Fi
hotspot function is not available in all countries or vehicles.
As default, theWi-
Fi
connection is encrypted using WPA2 encryption for security reasons. Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles recommends
always using WPA2 encryption. Observe country-specific regulations.
The necessary data transfer may be subject to charge. Due to the potentially high data usage, Volkswagen
Commercial Vehicles recommends using a mobile telephone tariff which includes a flat rate for data. For
more information contact your mobile telephone provider.
Depending on your mobile telephone tariff, additional costs(such as roaming charges) may be charged for the
transfer of online data packages, especially if you use these services abroad.
When you cross the border into countries that have different permitted radio frequencies than in your own
country, operation of the wireless function/Wi-Fi
must be deactivated due to legal requirements. The Wi-Fi hotspot must be deactivated .
Operation of functions with a cable connection is not affected by this restriction, and these functions can still be
used.
