    Default In-car Wifi – 07-06-2016,09:36 AM
    Just reading this article on BBC this morning: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-36444586

    Whilst nothing to suggest Audi have any similar issues, I think it would be wise to remove the reference to "Audi" in the default wi-fi hotspot name and also use a random/complex passphrase (not passWORD) with special characters, numbers etc.

    I will be doing this tonight!

    Lol, I remember hearing about someone who lived in a block of flats who use to give his WiFi network names like "Dave from no. 3 is a w**ker"...
    MY17 SQ7, Sepang Blue, 22s, and lots of toys.
    MY16 Passat Bluemotion GT, Reflex Silver, 19s, only a few toys.
