      • Log into your account through the provider’s website or app.
      • Ensure your subscription is active and payments are up to date.
      • Check if there are any service outages or maintenance notices.
    2. Check Vehicle Settings:

      • Ensure your vehicle’s software is up to date.
      • Restart the vehicle’s infotainment system by turning the vehicle off, waiting a few minutes, and turning it back on.
    3. Reset Network Settings:

      • Go to the settings menu in your infotainment system.
      • Look for an option to reset or refresh network settings.
      • Re-enter your Wi-Fi credentials.
    4. Contact Customer Support:

      • Contact GM customer support or your service provider directly.
      • Provide them with detailed information about the issue, including the steps you have already taken and any error messages you have received.
      • Ask if there are any known issues with the model of your vehicle.
    5. Request Advanced Diagnostics:

      • Ask your GM dealer to perform advanced diagnostics on the infotainment system and Wi-Fi module.
