Problems with OBD

Hi guys, I recently started to have troubles connecting my phones to my car.
I bought Mg flasher license, flashed it stage 1 and wanted to change today some custom options.

I do have an Iphone 14 and other android phones, always connected to it via Obd/ethernet and lighting/usb type C adapter, but seems like the app does not detect the ethernet cable. I need help please!

Does other apps work? You can try locking car and let it sleep for 10mins and then try again

Its likely issue with settings or the adapter. Try following rhe bimmercode guide in how to setup the connection

I always use an ENET cable, plus Ethernet-Lightning adapter, with my iPhone. However, it won't connect unless you first put the phone in Airplane Mode, i.e. switch off WiFi, BT and mobile data.

I tried too, it doesn’t connect with MG flasher app, don’t know with other apps tho.
I thought first it was the obd port of the car but it works fine with wifi module for bimmercode. Tried with a obd screen for readings and works too.
Thought then the adapters or obd/enet cable, changed both but nothing
