Can't establish data connection

I continue to get this message when I try to access the web or MB apps. Another issue involves reading / speaking text messages. I have an Iphone 5s and have been unable to have texts read to me. Any help on either or both issues would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same problem with my 2013 ML350 Bluetec. I took it to the dealer and they had to Pair COMMAND with MBRACE2 and it is now working.

They might have to upgrade the software... My car was a Nov build and needed a refresh...

I'm wondering if you pulled the command and similar fuses that it might reboot and reset everything?

Frack the connectivity - car connectivity is like 1.5G.

On the iPhone text/read issue - do a forum search - you need to set the iPhone notifications correctly on your phone

No matter the end connection speed the fact that it can't connect is an indication that something is wrong in the link between the command and the internet module.

The real benefit isn't the internet capability (that we all know is slow).... But the ability to receive internet radio. Albeit isn't Pandora but I still enjoy my Australian Trance channel.
