[CA] [CA11] Unaddressed LH 3 feature missing

[cstotland]

The last updated list of gap features for LH2-to-3 doesn't mention updating product software via Wi-Fi and/or connecting the MFD to a Wi-Fi access point. For MFD's running LightHouse II software, this feature was used for WiFi bridging, where users can connect to the MFD via Wi-Fi while also having the MFD act as a client to a different access point, allowing the clients connected to the MFD and the MFD itself to have access to the Internet. While this feature is supported by Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFDs running LightHouse 3 software it is not presently supported by eS/gS-Series MFDs which are running LightHouse 3 software. Not having this feature means that users are forced to update both system and navigational/charting applications manually and independently. It also is cumbersome to use under way when external connectivity is required.

Is it possible to confirm if this feature can be expected to be added? Can its omission be included in the list of LHII to LH3 gap features?

For me, this feature disparity is a show stopper. Will be reverting back to LH2 until it's addressed.
