I am going to try to retrofit a WLAN cable to my ENTRYNAV2 see if I have the WLAN port before flashing options.
I am in the UK, is there a recommended WLAN antenna? Thanks |

Thank you. Will look at that model number and order similar here in the UK.
Does anyone have instructions or a video how to remove the panel to retrofit the antenna? Little nervous about it : |

Thanks to Shawnsheridan for hooking me up. I didn't have to tear up my dash open to stuff an MMI. I talked to 2 different company and said the same that it's impossible. My car is a US Spec in Germany. I do have the 06CP and Premium Nav. I had to sign a waiver due to US Spec BMW's CarPlay won't work due to frequency differences, blah blah. But the loaner that the dealership gave me was a '22 330i and had a CarPlay. I'm not sure why, maybe they sorted out the newer models. The process was quick; ENET cable came in two days. I plugged it in my PC and sat in the car. 30 minutes later, it was done.

Battery charger vs. plug into another can for upgrading
Hi,
I understand that for flashing upgrading the iDrive the car battery has to be connected to either another vehicle (that is running) or a battery charger. Are there any risks with this approach (e.g., to the electronics) is one method safer than others? Using a cable would be simpler and cheaper as I dont have a charger but just wanted to check. Thanks |
