For the technical folks...I tried an "Ethernet to WiFi" bridge adapter long ago...
The Volvo DoIP connection needs 2 things:
Use APIPA address in Windows (169.254.0.0/16 network) on the adapter connected to the car
No default gateway, no routing, computer and car must be on the same APIPA subnet, and broadcast packets must be passed.
That was insurmountable by the WiFi bridge. and also has been not able to be supported by the VxDiag adapter that does DoIP over bluetooth for Jag and BMW, though they could figure out how to add support for that if they wanted to.
