Go to settings and click wlan and set up a network, you can use your phone as a hotspot but might need to manually add the settings.

Cannot see a WLAN setting but the globe icon is lit this morning.

Following Skoda Digital advice I performed a factory reset on my vehicle and tried again and got instant connectivity.The app is now up and running.

Under the impression that Downloading MySkoda app, pairing the phone and logging on as main driver the promised land would beckon, preloading a journey, updating maps, vehicle status car location in a car park, I got sweet FA, all services appear to have a cost linked to them and that is a mega off-put, am I missing something ?

How old is your car, if new Skoda connect service is free for 3 years. If older the it does incur a cost.

2023 model, looks like the app is useless then

Currently with a new car purchase the app is "free" for 3 years after that you have to pay for some of the stuff. I think the free period is limited to the first owner.
