I have previously used the streaming capability back when it first came out as well as the hotspot since before Connect+ was a thing. I am trying to get the streaming working again but it seems to have been hidden fully behind the paywall. (Not looking to argue the merits of that system here) I recall after Connect+ came out being able to still use the Hotspot while tethering with my phone, and losing it isn't a big deal other than needing to update my wife's wifi, but I think I remember needing to be on the Hotspot to do casting. My question is, did Rivian remove both of these features to fully behind the connect+ paywall? I thought that if you used phone tethering or if you were connected to WIFI you could use most all of the usual streaming like features of the Rivian? If anyone can recommend how to stream while using tethering I'm sure myself and others without Connect+ would appreciate it.

The EV Sportline frunk cooler for the Rivian is a really cool accessory to have especially if you're someone who goes on road trips a lot. I was a little skeptical, because it is not terribly deep (6”), but it turned out to be perfect for a monthly Aldi run with frozen and refrigerated food. It is flexible, but solidly made. It fits under the solid shelf in the frunk, so all of the dry/canned/breads went on top.
