It fixed itself. After 3 weeks of not working, I switched the radio source to bluetooth and left it there when I turned the truck off. The next morning everything worked.

Followup: the nav won't connect to internet either so its beyond the scope of just XM. Might have to suck it up and drop my truck off at the dealer.

Hotspot was 6 months ago.

The internet portion of my XM has quit connecting. I know my truck has connectivity because UConnect remote start works, Guardian shows as connected, and the hotspot works. Anything that involves the cell signal has a gray "subscribe" box and/or says waiting for internet signal. It happened...

You are aware you are paying for Verizon hotspot? It's $10 per month per phone and there are data limits and throttling.

Because its faster than my Verizon phone, its always on, and no data limits. I have pulled off into corn fields and video conferenced when travelling for work.

I bought the 12 months unlimited internet from AT&T for $120/yr. Installed an Android TV and my kid can stream Netflix in HD without interruption on cross country trips. You guys bother trying it before you go through all this effort?

This summer we moved and had to make some long, boring trips so I installed a tablet/TV in the backseat so I could keep my sanity. I'm running the unlimited wifi hotspot to power streaming services and have a stock gaming console with wireless controllers. Now that I have the system dialed in...

Is there a way to know it was successful? My experience so far is at least a dozen trips through the pay by plate with zero recognitions, and card swipers that work 10% of the time. Kind of worried about getting nailed for skipping tolls.

I'm back! And paying too many damn tolls here in Chicagoland. Does anyone have the safety package with limited center windshield real estate have an EZ-Pass installed? Where did you put it and are there any interference concerns?

Did they laugh because XXIII is 23? ;-)

Just in case, you can always remind them.

Super Duty tow mirrors, parts only. $600 pays the shipping and sales tax lol.

Wait until you get one damaged and have to replace it.

I don't even put my mirrors up for towing, I see just fine even with a 33 ft TT.
