Car Play & Wireless Internet

urobbert

ok thanks. Its such a shame that it needs to be plugged in to have internet to dudu7 and carplay. Fingers crossed that one day it is all wireless

DUDU-Meng can this be solved while running a sim card? Like can you run android auto/applecar play while recieving data for the other apps/widgets to work? Example weather widget and android auto?

SIM cards are always available to keep DUDUOS networked. But android auto is your phone casting over, and it's your phone's network that is used within android auto.

What were the official settings for my iphone? Bluetooth on, hotspot on, bluetooth on, wifi off? What is the correct stable combination?

I am having problems again. With wifi on it takes the internet away from my iphone because my phone is trying to get internet from the dudu via wifi. Some days it all works perfect and some days wont connect at all and some days i have no internet to my phone.

Are you saying that after connecting to Bluetooth, the Wi-Fi turns off and then automatically turns on the hotspot? Is that right?

urobbert

Bluetooth connected to DuDu. Hotspot connected to Dudu. WiFi connected to DuDu. USB connected to Dudu.

But... My iPhone has no internet because my wifi is connected to Dudu CarLink and always auto connects.

Is WiFi needed for wireless connection to carplay? Should I disable Wifi on the Dudu? I can not work out what is needed or what is the official settings

Second related question. Why can Apple CarPlay have wireless internet from my phone but to have internet for the Dudu7 it must be plugged in to usb?

Example... When using Apple CarPlay on DuDu I can play Youtube Music while only connected via wireless connection inside CarPlay. But to use Youtube Music App on Dudu I must have my phone plugged in via USB to get internet to the Dudu

If you insert a SIM card into DUDU7, it can connect to the Internet at any time.
If you only use Wi-Fi to access the Internet, then after connecting to CarPlay, you can only use the Internet within CarPlay.

Thanks for the reply. I use mobile data off my sim to commect to the Dudu. the wifi is only used for the carplay but I am not sure if its needed to be on.

I feel like some setting is messed up on my system because some days it works and some days doesnt work. And today even with USB connected I could not get internet to Dudu at all

urobbert DUDU's SIM card allows DUDU to connect to the Internet, but does not include CarPlay.
This is because CarPlay is projected from an iPhone. It uses the iPhone's network.

urobbert The apps in CarPlay are all apps from your phone, and it will use your phone's internet connection.
