morph3ous,

The issue you are experiencing likely has nothing to do with the VPN. Network connectivity is not needed to unlock the car. I have been in places with no cell phone signal and it still works.

I do sometimes experience the same issue you are. If I wake up my phone, then it works. So it may be working for you not because you disabled the VPN, but because you woke up your phone and it then sent out the bluetooth signal to let the car know you were nearby.

My mom got me the spot gen 4 for Christmas. Im out in the middle of nowhere a lot of the time and am interested in having it for emergencies or communicating when I have no signal however I am not a fan of being tracked on the go. Is there anything to be concerned of with these type of products? Id say yes but I cant find...

morph3ous,

Why not use one of these instead? The main downside I see is that you can’t send messages. But there is no monthly service fee. :)

morph3ous,

I didn’t mean the message to sound the way it did. You already have the Spot messenger and it is a cool product. I just wanted to present another useful way to signal for emergency help in remote areas.
