[QUOTE="back2u, post: 1210885, member: 25578"] [b]Want HotSpot!![/b] 2018 Raptors with the 802a package have all the Synch 3 features except ambient lighting and the Synch Connect hotspot. Since all the other synch and synch connect features are included (remote start and lock/unlock) it seems like adding the hotspot feature should simply be a software update. Or, at most, a modem changeout would be needed. I called Ford and got the typical run-around that it cannot be done. But that answer is because the person on the phone didn't have a clue. I realize there are lots of other ways to get Wifi in the vehicle, but you really can't beat the $20/month price for unlimited data that Ford negotiated with AT&T - that makes the feature worth getting. Other options like Verizon's MiFi, can't match the price, and using your phone as a hotspot doesn't typically have the reliability and speed of a dedicated vehicle connection. Let's keep this thread going until we find out the facts on how the hotspot feature can be added to 2018 Raptors! [/QUOTE]
