Question: 

I am using third-party BMW Rheingold ISTA+ software with a VXDIAG VCX SE BMW device, not the VXDIAG 2TB hard drive. What device type should I select in the vehicle interface settings?

Solution:

In this case, select the vehicle interface as “Dealer organization ICOM/ENET local area network“.

Hit “Yes” to accept Ethernet as the preferred communication channel when connected via ICOM.
