You can use the hot spot on your phone and connect your truck to that...other than that, I'm unsure at the moment...but that's what I do myself.

I get it...lol
I can look into other options tomorrow possibly and let you know if you would like...my phone is pretty easy to use for the hot spot, so I didn't bother digging any deeper.

So, I was messing around a little more today..
It seems like you can turn off the Google assistant as an option, or another option that I would only use if for some reason I didn't want to use OnStar for data service, because last I knew they used ATT... You could get a mobile hotspot...but the only reason I would go that route is if ATT didn't work in my area.
I was going to see if I could use Android Auto but I had deactivated that earlier and it wasn't cooperating with me.
I know, not much help but I hope you're a little better off than before.

I have shut off the google assistant to no avail. I will try a hot spot and see if that works. Thanks for your help withthis!

It's seems that if you just keep it plugged in inside your truck to keep if charged up, once you connect it the first time it'll be good to go...it should just connect automatically when you start the truck.

Suggestion…I bought a data plan for OnStar so I could stream a program while driving cross country. I was told by the dealership I had a multi system. Electrical failure caused by a bad OnStar module . This included ABS and I believe traction control. Had no idea my ABS was out. Good to find this out in September before having to rely on ABS sliding through a busy intersection on icy streets in December.
