I am no longer able to access the gateway through my IP address. I get the message to download the pros app. I downloaded the app. How do we use it as a homeowner similarly to how we logged into the gateway through the IP?

That was not an option. But, even if I am able to access, eventually it would no longer be an option. So how do we use the app as an alternative?Continue

No need for pro app.
You can log in to Tesla One as an External Partner using your Tesla credentials. Then navigate to More / Tesla Device Setup / Scan QR Code and scan the QR code behind your gateway door. You'll need to be nearby and connect to the gateway wifi each time you want to use the app.That was not an option. But, even if I am able to access, eventually it would no longer be an option.

THANK YOU @offandonagain - this right here is what I've been searching for and was unable to find until now.

Also the screws that hold the cover on are one-use screws with a compressable gasket that needs replacement to maintain waterproof integrity.Bottom right of your screenshot.
For PW3 it's not straightforward unfortunately: the QR code to connect to its wifi is behind the glass cover. So you'd have to take a picture of the QR code while it was being installed or serviced.
Ahh, too late for me then. I wish I had done it while they were installing.Bottom right of your screenshot.

FWIW, my install team told me only the top two screws are the one-time use screws.Also the screws that hold the cover on are one-use screws with a compressable gasket that needs replacement to maintain waterproof integrity.
Grid charging on or off (I'm guessing off). And what's your backup reserve set at? 20% possibly.Also, I do see that in the graphical representation, my house is consuming electricity directly from the grid, and the battery is 20%.
Shouldn't be there a line between the grid, the powerwall and home as well? Hopefully I did upload correctly the printscreen:
Actually, in that view there is the battery buffer, so I would say reserve is set at 15%. When mine is set to 10% that view shows 14% when it’s at the reserve.Grid charging on or off (I'm guessing off). And what's your backup reserve set at? 20% possibly.
Using Tesla one, does it show your Tesla account details correct?
Also, try renaming your “Home” for the wall connector and then logout/log in to the regular Tesla app. Maybe even removing it and re-installing it may help.
Try those items and report back.

Do you have a Tesla account? That might be part of the issue. When I log into Tesla One it just redirects to a Tesla site. Tesla One is really an app for installers, but it can give you more details into how the system is working than is normally displayed for customers.
Do you have the regular Tesla app? That's where you would set battery reserve.
