Local multiplayer no longer works

I used to love playing local multiplayer with friends and family, including in no/poor WiFi areas like hotels. In the latest version Bluetooth no longer appears to be supported, meaning local play needs a strong unrestricted WiFi connection. After a half hour of frustration I just gave up trying to play in my hotel. Now I wish I never accepted the update!
