wi-fi does not share

Question

I have a 2023 Yukon and the wi-fi is consistently not working. The "Share Hotspot Data is defaulted to "Off". If I turn it "On" it shares the internet connection, but only for a few seconds (10-15) and then the setting reverts to "Off". &nbsp;At the instruction of onstar, I can reset it by turning off&nbsp;the vehicle and opening the drivers door. &nbsp;This will temporarily work and then it reverts to off again. &nbsp; This has made the wi-fi useless and the passengers can not use the wi-fi. &nbsp;Are there any permanent solutions?

Well this is seeming to be a trend I am having the same issue in my 2024 Silverado 2500. Have we identified a fix?

Same thing is happening to me in my 2022 GMC Sierra. Have called OnStar multiple times, done the soft reset on the infotainment system, done the OnStar reset, best case scenario enabling the Wifi Sharing option under the vehicle connection settings to the "On" position lasts maybe 10-15 seconds before automatically turning itself back off.

It's just one problem after another with OnStar. Truck has just over 55k miles on it and I've already had to replace the OnStar control module twice, first time was covered under warranty but the second wasn't. Really hoping this isn't another hardware issue and that someone from OnStar can figure it out. They're "escalated" the issue but was told to wait for another 3-5 days for someone to get back to me because 1st level support either hasn't been trained on how to fix it or OnStar can't figure it out despite this being a well known issue based on the number of posts referencing it.

So annoying.
