No hotpot option
So I was trying to setup unlimited att hotspot in the car but I don't see hotspot option in iDrive. On only have WiFi which I assume is for CarPlay purposes. Any idea how to get hotspot option added. Bmw connected customer service didn't know what was going on?

Finally got it working. Some genius at BMW finally figured it out and all they had to do was refresh services on their end.
