Connected Car Wi-Fi (Toyota) - Turn Network Name (SSID) On / Off

Here's how to broadcast or not broadcast your Toyota in-car Wi-Fi hotspot name to other devices.
  • Every wireless access point (e.g., router, hotspot) has a network name or SSID (Service Set Identifier) assigned to it.
  • While the SSID is typically broadcast by default, it can be turned off for greater security.
  • When turned off, any device attempting to connect for the first time must know the SSID name and password to set up a manual connection to it.
    For the easiest connection experience, it's recommended to leave broadcast on.
