mBrace and WIFI

Since every car in the US has a five year complimentary Mbrace Connect (internet) service, can Command also set up in car WIFI so the internet can be used by laptops, tables, etc.? If so what is the procedure, please? By this I mean use the car's native WIFI rather than use a WIFI hot spot on my cell phone. And I don't need the concierge/entertainment package.

WiFi hotspot on US models requires an additional subscription to complete the configuration.

Setup under connection and requires service. We use it and the speed is fine working from a laptop. Nice to have.

WiFi hotspot is part of the mbrace Entertain package. In the US that's $18 per month.
