Rivian Treehouse Rooftop Tent Hides a Neat Trick up Its Sleeves - Autoevolution

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.

Okay, so I think this might be one of the best accessories I've ever come across so far. I want one of these and I think I can convince my husband to glamp.

"The Treehouse tent also has a heated mattress, which can be controlled from the same infotainment menu page. This means that the tent is integrated into the vehicle's communications bus. However cool these features are, there's one that is even more exciting: the Treehouse comes with its own movie projector. This runs on power provided by the vehicle and projects the image on a roll-down screen placed on the side window."

This is just one of the exciting quotes from the article and you can read the article below.
