I would say go Wifi dongle (modBMW/MHD
black, these are full rate wifi and will so work with the E) and get Bimmerlink and/or ISTA.
You can use you laptop for ISTA with the Wifi dongle, don't need a enet. If you plan on coding then yes, you will need the enet cable.
I do have the 530 and think its the biggest waist of money.
1. It is stupid slow and the interface is clunky.
2. If you are going to read out live values, you can get the same with BMLink or free app like Torque or ISTA.
3. If you are doing any actual diagnostics/troubleshooting, you are going to be using ista. (plus ista manuals/instructions)
4. Pay per vehicle vendor.
5. Cable.
*edit* and it looks like the wifi dongle is supported by the Carista app mentioned above
