Hi Richard,
Unfortunately I'm afraid the answer to your question will almost certainly be 'NO'. What this does is allows the TABLET to connect to the internet via a Bluetooth link, using the phone's internet connection while the Tablet's own Wifi is tied up by PAW.
To download updates, PAW's WiFi would need to be configured as a 'Client' and as Lee has told us several times in the past, it has to be configured as a 'host' so it can supply the necessary data to the Nav systems.
Sorry
Personally, I will be using Lee's 'update via USB Stick' option for my 'In Plane PAW' once I have done the initial update to 20160820 to make this available. This also facilitates the downloading of PAW track logs for external analysis, so a double bonus!
Regards
Peter
