I'll take a look at ours, but it seems like we just has our update this week. Same issue as before...all the "warning" lights turn on (traction control failure, check engine, etc..), then one by one, they turn off after the update, with the check engine light turning off last. We connected our series III to the home WiFi and hopefully the update process will run smoother.
Regarding the "warning" and "failure" lights. Although it's been causing the wife all manner of anxiety, its just the process of owning a car with all this new tech...I've resigned myself to the fact that these notices will continue to turn on/off during the updates and reboot processes for the next few months. Kinda crappy for a >80k SUV!
Fortunately, nothing mechanically seems to be wrong with the car (not yet)

Sounds like a plan. When I get mine will post. The vehicle should arrive very soon.

Let's hope they get back to upgrades without flashing lights, etc. 😵 All the other UConnect owners in other vehicle lines haven't complained about that as far as I have found. Do updates happen at all hours or only during 'daylight' hours? 😬
You've given me an idea though, I'm going to create a private network on my LAN to just serve the GW. Set it on its own channel, SSID, etc. so as not to worry. All separate from my home LAN, drive it straight into the ISP router. Fast, dedicated and firewalled from my home devices so Stellantis can do what they want.

Glad to see another FiOS customer. The answer is dependent upon your router. If you have the newest router, the white round tower shaped one, it has the ability to create a special network. Logging into the router, you'll see a menu on the left. I'll make it short: see pictures below. First is picture of the router. Second is the main naviation menu on the left. Third is your 'Guest' network that is essentially a buffer between your home stuff and anything like friends, etc. you want to use your network. I don't know what the UConnect setup is yet, but it should be able to search for whatever name you put into that Guest network SSID space. Pick something that doesn't describe what it is actually being used for, kids and unfriendly types will play with it just to see what they can do. Sad, but true. Let me know if this isn't enough to help you set it up. I'm partial to FiOS, worked for the networking company who provided all the stuff to VZ and deployed it with them. ☺️
