I traded my First Edition for my original GT order on Saturday. My FE had no issues with my unifi wifi at home, but now with the GT, it is giving me the unable to connect. I wonder if there was a change to the network stack between releases that causes this? My FE had a very early release that was older than most cars got.I'm actually pretty surprised at how many others are using Unifi networks at home. I guess I shouldn't be, a high tech car self-selects for nerdy customers.
Sync is built on the venerable QNX OS. I was able to find a doc that indicates the QNX DHCP client only supports options 1-61. It's bizarre that it would simply refuse a lease from a server offering options outside that range, rather than simply ignore it. Anyone got an old Blackberry around? I wonder if it would behave the same way.
Ford is transitioning to Android Automotive (which is different than Android Auto) for Sync in the future, which should hopefully alleviate problems like this, in favor of all new problems. Progress!
