Trophy's 4G connection and Android Auto / Carplay

[pharrison84]

Just been watching one of Burl Solomon's helpful videos on YouTube about the free WiFi hotspot on the Trophy. This was a useful feature I'd overlooked.

With that in mind I suspect I will use the AA for internet radio rather than use DAB, as the DAB sounds a bit glitchy, and is missing logos.

Are Trophy owners using this feature? Is the 4G connection pretty reliable? Do phones connect easily enough on starting up the car? Can you set up AA and Carplay to use the car's data connection by default? I suspect that's not the case and it just adopts whatever data connection the phone is using.

I've used Carplay with the Wifi hotspot and it works well when the car's SIM has a good enough signal
