    had the issue with changing the beep setting and disabling my fobs a couple months ago. https://www.4runners.com/threads/2022-4runner-key-fob-issues.25936/page-2
    How dare I want the beep a little louder. Service rep told me y'all didn't know what you were talking about tech stream couldn't fix it... Hours later imagine that, fixed it in tech stream. Fast forward, here I am months later having other issues. Radio has not kept the correct time to save it's life and several setting queries come back with errors because the head unit clock doesn't match the correct time. Then last week I purchased a month worth of wifi through my connected services for an upcoming road trip. Radio keeps erroring out, won't connect. Troubleshot it for several days tried at&t's suggestions nothing worked. Spent hours on phone with AT&T/Toyota yesterday and today attempting to troubleshoot. Toyota finally makes me a same day appointment at my dealer because I supposedly have a head unit update that should fix it. Dealer gets truck in the bay starts working on it comes back and tells me the is no update. Call back Toyota while fighting through the que, Service Manager comes to talk to me tries working through what to try. Tech comes out "oh hey we found the update" we all cross fingers but no dice. Now they're telling me my only option is a new head unit with no eta. Anybody have any ideas? I'm wondering now if it's possible another stupid setting got changed and this all stems from the same original issue.

    Also, auto adjust time by GPS is apparently broken.

    Update:
    Got back from our trip they called and let me know the head unit is in, go for the appointment today. They replace the unit and have me come out to pair my phone with the "tech expert". The minute I turn on the car I know it's not fixed. So now I'm in a loaner while they open some ticket with Toyota and no answers. They put me in a Corolla... I'm wickedly frustrated and upset. Does anyone have any idea what the heck could be going on with my Runner?
