My tablet has the option to assign static IP etc

I followed the guide on the bimmercode website (LINK)

But I'm unable to connect to the car (an F07)

Here are some screenshots





My tablet has a separate settings page for the ethernet connection



There is an option to assign static IP



I used this app to see more info about the wired ethernet connection to the phone

Here are some screen shots when it's connected to my router:




It picks up other devices on the network





Here is the screen shot when connected to the car




I tried another android tablet (a MiPad 4), but that did not have any option to set a static IP, though the LAN adapter worked on it.


Am I doing something wrong or is it a limitation of my tablet?

Thank you for your inputs

Best Regards
With my Galaxy, for some reason, I need to turn on WiFi as well as put the phone in airplane mode. If WiFi isn't on, it won't let me connect to my car and gives me the same message you got.
