(2) Besides opening up the head unit, how would you be able to tell if your car comes equipped with a wifi antenna or if you have to install one?

Thanks
USB method only works on software levels up to "N", For versions N and later ones ENET method is to be used.

If you have don't any of these three and very likely that you are missing the antenna :

06CP Preparation Apple CarPlay
06NW Telephony with wireless charging
06WD WLAN Hotspot

What year is your F30 ?
