Can’t get my wifi to work and on star can’t figure it out either. New truck, should have 72Gig of data. And I can’t connect my phones hotspot either. Anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?
TIA

New truck, dealer should have helped set it up. Mine did. Had my On Star transferred from previous truck to new truck and Sirius as well. On Star came with a 5 year paid up plan from the dealer. Hot spot has to have a password. Not sure about the phones. As I said, dealer took care of all of that when I picked the truck up.

Agree, its far from stellar performance.  I would not have it for wifi, but want to keep my posted speed limit and maps working.

Has it ever worked?  If not, back to the dealership and let them sort it.   If so, it may be your radio got fried.  The radio in my 2021 lost Wi-Fi and Bluetooth a few months ago, yet radio and Sirius still worked fine.  Radio was replaced at dealership.  Thank goodness for extended warranty!

I had this same issue after my purchase went through, after the dealership let me use the truck for a few days until my check came in.   

 

I was on the dang phone with Onstar & GM rep's for over 2 hours.  Terrible support.   Finally an Onstar guy helped me with the following steps.   

 

There is a hidden reset for the head unit.  With the truck on and running HOLD the 'end call' button until the head unit turns off (15 seconds).   It will reboot and takes a few minutes.  

 

After it all boots up you may want to shut off the truck and open the driver door for "2 minutes".  

 

If this doesn't work, go through the process of resetting the settings in the 'settings' menu of the head unit.  Reset & clear everything!

 

Finally got all my speedo stuff and data working after that last step.

      Clunk when putting truck into drive and reverse.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.
