Hi guys,

I want to have WiFi connection in car. I use prepaid ATT on my cell with unlimited data which does not allow to use the phone as hotspot. Why I want to have internet in car! I drive long distances very often and would like to use my phone and car screen separately. I like to use my car play and to have google maps on the head-unit, but it puts the directions automatically on the phone. Therefore, you can not open YouTube or any other application on the phone.

I have the star link button on the screen but doubt that it has built in WiFi!

Obt2 is an option but I am afraid for hacking and opening the doors

What is the best option? Happy to hear what you guys do.
Thanks
