Free tool · Windows
ENET Forwarder. Customer car, on your laptop.
Plug the ENET cable into your car and your PC, then press Start. The Forwarder sends the car’s connection to our technician’s laptop, so we can code it remotely as if we were sitting next to it.
- Finds the car by itself
- No installation
- Port 22 for NBT EVO & EntryNav2
How it works
Three steps. About a minute.
- 1
Connect
Ignition on. Plug the ENET cable into the car’s OBD port and into your Windows PC.
- 2
Start the Forwarder
Open FlashXCode_ENET_Forwarder.exe. It finds the car and shows its VIN by itself.
- 3
Press Start Forwarding
Your car is now reachable from our laptop over the remote connection we set up with you. Leave the PC on until we finish.
The connection
From your car to our laptop.
The ENET cable connects the car to your PC. The Forwarder passes that connection on to our technician, so we work on the car as if we were next to it.
What it does
Built for BMW remote coding.
Forwards the ENET traffic
Passes the BMW diagnostic connection (ports 6801 and 6811) from the car to our remote laptop.
Port 22 for head units
Tick “Forward EVO port 22” or “Forward EnavEVO port 22” and we can reach NBT EVO and EntryNav2 units directly.
Reconnects by itself
Unplug the cable or restart the car and it finds the car again when the link comes back.
You stay in control
Nothing runs in the background. Press Stop Forwarding or close the window and the connection ends.
Live log
Every step is shown in the window, so you can see exactly what’s happening.
Requirements
What you’ll need.
- A Windows PC or laptop with an internet connection
- An ENET cable (OBD to Ethernet)
- A BMW, MINI or Rolls-Royce from the F or G series (or i3/i8)
- The remote connection we agree with you before the session
Keep the car on a battery charger during coding, and keep the PC from going to sleep.
FAQ
Good to know.
It says “ENET not found”.
Check that the cable is plugged in at both ends and the ignition is on, then click Refresh. On some PCs you have to enable the Ethernet adapter first.
Windows warns me about the file.
The tool is new and not yet known to Windows SmartScreen. Click “More info”, then “Run anyway”.
When do I tick the port 22 options?
Only when we ask you to. We use it for NBT EVO and EntryNav2 head units.
Port 22 is already in use on my PC.
The Forwarder switches to port 5022 by itself. Nothing for you to change.
Is it safe?
It only forwards traffic while the window is open and you’ve pressed Start. Close it and the connection ends.
