Porsche, that's not good. Porsche Connect's communication capacity suddenly went from 10GB to 3GB.

Cayenne to watch youtube.

In the past, my family hasRear monitor mounted on rear seat of CayenneI wrote an article about how the company has developed a new system that allows children to watch youtube, etc. in the back seat.

Porsche Cayenne Rear Monitor

Our Cayenne was purchased from the dealer's new car inventory in September 2020, when we werePorsche Connect wi-fi capacity is "3GB per month"I thought.

Then a reader commented.

The previous capacity was 3 GB, but there was talk of not having enough capacity, and customers who registered their new cars starting with the 2020 model year were told that they could10GB per monthThe dealer responded that it was "a

He told me.(You went out of your way to contact the dealer to confirm this)

Then, in October and November, when I was using Cayenne's wi-fi, I was able to watch youtube without any problems even after 5GB.I'm glad to know that the capacity is now 10GB. 10GB is enough for now.He was talking about "the

Around December, however, children sitting in the backseat of

I can't watch youtube! I can't watch it no matter what I do!

He began to say, "No, that can't be right. I haven't used 10 gigs yet.When I checked it, the capacity was still just over 3 gigs. But after that, I couldn't watch youtube no matter how I tried, and I wondered if there was some kind of problem, so I decided to take a look for now.

And this January. the image quality when watching youtube is too large and uses up a lot of space.Always turn off youtube before lowering the picture quality or getting out of the car.(lessening the significance or value of the previous word) the likes of(Even if you turn off the engine, youtube will stay connected for a while if you don't do anything)and used it, but in mid-January, the children were "notI can't watch youtube again.He said.

What? ! Again!

I checked and my wi-fi capacity is around 3GB again.

Porsche Cayenne wi-fi

This could possibly be aMonthly wi-fi capacity changed to 3GB.I think it might be.... I mean, it's been two months in a row, so it probably is.

There was no prior communication from the Porsche dealer or the Connect support center regarding this matter. I was notified by the

Well, it may be a small thing, but it is a luxury car and we paid a certain amount of money for it, so I wonder why they are so stingy with such a small thing. Moreover, if I bought a new car, it would be 10 GB, wouldn't it? I don't like this kind of thing.

And my husband, too, when I say.

This is not good. Nowadays, you can buy a large capacity car for a few thousand yen a month, so I think it's fine to add it to the price of the car in advance. If I was asked to pay in advance as an option at the time of purchase, I would have done so if they had told me.
Thus, the cost is less than the cost that can be saved by suddenly increasing the wi-fi capacity to 3GB.The loss of "user disappointment in Porsche" by doing so is much greater.I think. I don't know why you would be so stingy for such a small cost savings.
Moreover.It is also appropriate that the initial 10GB is reduced to 3GB without any notice.And it's too much. As I recall, when I bought my 971 Panamera, I was told at first that I could use wi-fi as much as I wanted, but then they changed it to 3GB halfway through.

In the case of our family, we don't need that much wi-fi capacity for sports models such as the 911 because my husband mainly goes driving and touring, but for the Cayenne, we have a lot of wi-fi capacity," he said.The whole family can ride together comfortably, even over long distances.Since I purchased the apartment with an emphasis on the "wi-fi" aspect, things like wi-fi environment are quite important.

Especially in our house, my husband is very particular about the Internet environment, and he has devised various ways to provide fast, stable, and comfortable Internet access in any room of the house, so I am quite concerned that the wi-fi environment is not good.

Well, "It's just wi-fi in the car, you can't ask for that from a Porsche.I'm not sure if it's a "one size fits all" or a "one size fits all" kind of thing.

However, if the car is not that expensive, I don't say it every time.Our Cayenne E-Hybrid cost over $13 million.Therefore, I think it is unfortunate that companies neglect this aspect of their business.

By the way, we are now able to use the tethering function of our own phones to watch youtube.

We both love Porsche, so I thought for a moment that I shouldn't even write about this on my blog, and maybe the capacity will be back to 10GB again, but I wrote this article today to provide a real voice of a user.... I wrote this article today to deliver the real voice of a user.

    I think you are right in your opinion.
    They may have lowered the capacity on their own and put a notice somewhere, but the people using it don't know.
    I'm full of disbelief that they're just going to lower it, but there's no notice.
    It's an absurd disappointment.

      Thank you!

      There's a lot of mixed information out there, and I'm a little confused as to what the right information is.
      It's a little confusing on the customer's part...

    Are you sure you are not confusing this campaign with this campaign?

    Hi Mina.

    We received a response from the dealer at the beginning of October last year with the following information.

    thank you

    Thank you for your help.
    We have a customer registered last year who has 3G.
    Right now, all of our customers who have registered new cars are on 10G.
    Please rest assured.

    This "now" is a tricky thing.

    I checked again at that time. Porsche's website surely sneaks it in the back? There is a mention of it.
    There was, but I can't find it now when I look for it, so I guess it was only last year.

    I ride alone and cannot play videos while the car is running.
    I can't even use 3G to begin with, but I'll check it out once I've used the capacity to the hilt.

      Thank you for going to the trouble!

      >This "now" is a tricky thing.
      I see... so you're saying that, sure, it's true now, but it won't always be true in the future...

      >I'll check it out once I've used the capacity to the hilt.
      Wow, thank you for your time.< I'd be happy to learn more from you!
