CarPlay - strange symbol - help!
Hi,
Any idea what the line through the WiFi symbol means - I know it seems obvious but would appreciate a considered input. Pic attached |

Normally, and icon with and exclamation point means a problem with that thing. So, I would be looking at what WiFi you’re connecting to and figure out what the problem is.

It means you're connected to WiFi without internet. ie wireless CarPlay

I wouldn't call it a bug. It's just letting you know your WiFi connection has no internet connectivity.

I had the same icon appear on my screen after I upgraded to IOS14. I have the aftermarket Bimmertech. MMI Set up in my vehicle. I read on a forum where changing the Wi-Fi channel on aftermarket unit to something other than 149 would fix it. In my case it did. I'm not sure if yours is OEM or a MMI box but that's what worked for me

Here's a video showing how accessed the MMI box to change the channel. Please note I have a Bimmertech retrofit and not OEM unit https://photos.app.goo.gl/QCMEa8sKJ2gF6AiQ9 |
