Ensuring Security
Change the default passwords for the
Wi-Fi hotspot and myChevrolet mobile
application. Make these passwords
different from each other and use a
combination of letters and numbers to
increase the security.
Change the default name of the Service
Set Identifier (SSID). This is your
network s name that is visible to other
wireless devices. Choose a unique name
and avoid family names or vehicle
descriptions.
Wi-Fi Hotspot
If equipped, the vehicle may have a built-in
Wi-Fi hotspot that provides access to the
Internet and web content at 4G LTE speed.
Up to seven mobile devices can be
connected. A data plan is required. Use the
in-vehicle controls only when it is safe to
do so.
1. To retrieve Wi-Fi hotspot information,
tap the Wi-Fi Hotspot icon on the
infotainment home screen.
2. The Wi-Fi settings display the Wi-Fi
hotspot name (SSID), password, and on
some vehicles, the connection type (no
Internet connection, 3G, 4G, 4G LTE), and
signal quality (poor, good, excellent). The
LTE icon shows connection to Wi-Fi. It is
possible that the icon may not illuminate
even though the vehicle has an active
connection.
3. To change the SSID or password, press
or call 1-888-4ONSTAR to connect
with an Advisor. On some vehicles, the
SSID and password can be changed in
the Wi-Fi Hotspot menu.
After initial set-up, your vehicle Wi-Fi
hotspot will connect automatically to your
