Hi all - I'm new to the forum and (almost) new to Fusion Sport. Mine is on the way, hopefully will pickup this week.
One thing I can't seem to find an answer on is whether the car / Sync 3 supports setting up a WiFi hotspot so my kids could use the internet on longer car rides.
I found the following statements on this page: owner.ford.com/how-tos/sync-technology/sync-3/sync-connect/sync-connect.html
A powerful way to connect to your vehicle—remotely
SYNC® Connect* allows Ford owners to stay connected to their vehicles in a way they’ve never been able to before. This built-in technology—powered by a 4G LTE modem and the AT&T network**—connects owners to their vehicles from virtually anywhere—through FordPass® on their smartphones.
And also found this press release from January '17: media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2017/01/04/new-high-speed-wi-fi-hotspot-with-ford-sync-connect.html
Does anyone know if the Fusion already supports this or will support this? The press release indicates new HW is included in '18 vehicles but there is nothing new indicated on the '18 Fusion order guide.
Just wondering. This site is a great resource already!
