OTA Power Up 1.7.1 preview

[TheSeg]

conservative is good in this case. there is such a thing as "too conservative" but I have confidence that as Ford does this more and gains more experience and confidence, the pace will pick up somewhat.

I started writing a reply to this. Then it got so long I made a new thread. Whops... ?‍

It is not public information, and I'm not looking to put someone's job in jeopardy with any more info than that. At this point ANY info is better than NO info that we've officially gotten from Ford. Even the Early Access team I have been in contact with has recently went silent.

Early Access is still a thing? I thought it became as dead as MySpace after they sent out the “invites” to be among the first to get BlueCruise, then began shipping production vehicles with BlueCruise without doing anything to Early Access people.

Honestly not sure what the status of the early access program is. The contact I have on the team there has went completely silent for a few weeks. It does raise concerns that they have run into an issue. Especially after finding out this OTA is ready to deploy, they just haven't hit the final go button on it.

Fingers crossed. I've been watching my network to see if the car starts downloading anything. It has been connecting a lot more than It had in the last few days.

My car has been connecting to my home network like crazy over the past several days. I noticed a couple of 10ish minute sessions but most were 1-2 minutes. ? ? ?‍?‍

What are you using to monitor your cars network activity?

Yeah before last week, it hadn't connected to my wifi since the 1.6.0 update. But with all the connections, its only downloaded a small amount of data so far.

I have Unifi network gear, and it has full logging and monitoring. So I have logs every time that device connects and how much usage it had.

I have my router send me a notification every time my MME connects/disconnects. I have not been monitoring the quantity of data transmitted/received, just number and duration of connections.

The last few weeks my MME has downloaded just a few MB each week. So much for EA BC.

What does it show up as for you on your network list? I have Google Wifi and see "SYNC" as an item. I'm assuming that's it...
