Mercedes-Benz in-car WiFi can access the internet. How to use Mercedes-Benz in-car WiFi: You can log in to the Mercedes-Benz Connect real-time system via a smartphone, register a personal account and bind the vehicle. After successful login and binding, it will display which intelligent connectivity functions can be activated for the Mercedes-Benz vehicle. One of these functions is the "In-car Wireless Hotspot". Follow the operation guide to purchase a network package, activate the account, and then you can normally use the in-car WiFi function. Purpose of in-car WiFi: The installation of in-car wireless WiFi is mainly for the co-pilot and rear passengers to relieve boredom during the journey. "Especially during long-distance self-driving tours, not every friend has sufficient nationwide data, and 3G internet card packages with large data are relatively cheap. The WiFi device allows the network signal to be shared.
I've driven several Mercedes-Benz models before, and the in-car Wi-Fi is indeed capable of internet access, which is quite convenient. Mercedes provides a hotspot through the Mercedes me Connect system, allowing devices to go online via the built-in SIM card or by connecting to your mobile network. For example, I can use my iPad in the car to check navigation, listen to online music, or let kids in the back seat watch movies without issues, especially on long trips where it saves data anxiety. However, note that the initial setup requires activating the service on the car's infotainment screen. Some vehicles come with a free trial period, but afterward, you may need to subscribe to a data plan, with monthly costs ranging from tens to hundreds of yuan. The signal is strong in urban areas but weaker in suburbs. It's advisable to test the connection before driving—safety comes first, so avoid distractions.
