You also need to add your device in the "allowed" list in ConnectedDrive->Mobile Devices in your car. When it is added, it appears in the list as a Bluetooth device (if paired) AND a Wi-Fi device.

I used these codes but the password is not displayed, as in the picture below:

HU_NBT 3003 WLAN_STATUS -> aktiv
HU_NBT 3003 WLAN_MODUS -> ap
HU_NBT 3003 WLAN_SIGNAL_STRENGTH -> incar/outdoor
HU_NBT 3003 ENT_MC_WLAN_STREAM_DMP_COVERART -> aktiv
HU_NBT 3003 ENT_MC_WLAN_STREAM_DMP_VIDEO -> aktiv
HU_NBT 3003 ENT_MC_WLAN_STREAM_DMP -> aktiv

Does anyone know how to solve it?

WiFi password

On older Bimmers the required Bluetooth password was physically printed on a sticker on the hardware box that contained that functionality. On the two E-series cars I am familiar with, the hardware was in the trunk on the driver's side.

For what it is worth, the BMW Genius told me that the WiFi capability can not be added to a car after production has complete. It had to be ordered and installed in the car during production. However, the same Genius also said I couldn't get an internet browser in my car, but that proved to be incorrect.

Did you add any hardware to your car or was it all done through coding? In my experience (with Almaretto) you can code options that then show up in i-Drive, but there is no actual functionality under the i-Drive option. As an example, I had an option in i-Drive to have either 1, 3 or 5 signal blink(s) but on the F-26, the actual hardware only supports 1 and 3 blinks. No functionality behind 5-blink option.

I did not add hardware to the machine, I just followed the encoding procedure
