GO 620 Doesn't Auto Connect To iPhone's Personal Hotspot
I've never experienced any issues with the bluetooth - it always connects and works, only issues with internet.
I have been told that it should automatically connect by itself, but this hasn't been my experience.
If anyone experienced anything similar or have any suggestions, that'd be great. Thanks.

Does this happen when you turn the ignition off and so the unit goes into Sleep mode or if you switch the TT Off before you leave the car or both.

Is it the same if you turn it Off when you leave the car.
You could try a Soft Reset of the Unit or Forget the Connection settings on your unit and the iPhone and then reload to see if that helps.
Does this happen in all occasions or when your Unit is within range of your Wifi at home. Ie at Home when it turns on it may see the Wifi briefly and log in then when out of range is not changing to the phone.

I have tried manually switching it off and on before, and there's no difference. It still doesn't reconnect. And yes, happens in all occasions.

One other option is a Factory Reset and if that also fails to correct then Customer Support.

Personally speaking it's not really bothered me, as the only thing wifi has over the Bluetooth/SIM connection is you can install updates over it, which I only really check for every week or so.
One (currently unproven) theory I did have is it won't connect to a wifi hotspot if it sees the device is in motion, or has a route planned - probably for safety reasons.
