Since my trench conduit is full, yeah that would be the only way. Just take my garden spade and pull back and shove it in a couple inches down. With it being Ethernet I don’t guess it is a safety concern. Idk it all really depends on how often this ends up happening. My main issue i would like...

Yeah I have several switches in my house but the span uses WiFi for internet and the Ethernet only for the gateway data and was told by support that hardwiring it would mean no more real time data from the gateway. Which I don’t understand but that was their explanation. Secondly it’s getting...

Yes right next to it. But the span panel reads the gateway data by plugging into the Ethernet port of the Tesla gateway. I still don’t think this will solve my issue because when WiFi goes down on my gateway so does cellular and Ethernet. Then a few resets of the gateway all works again. It’s...

Someone that is good at making apps should make one haha I’d pay for it. What’s strange is this is the only PWA I have an issue with. But none of the other send me as many notifications as this one so maybe I just don’t notice 😂

Yeah my Orbi 960 6E is crazy fast but occasionally get wonky but a reboot of all the units fixes it. AT&T fiber has been super solid over here for the past 3 or so years. I can count on one hand how many times it has went out. Including the one time I cut the fiber doing landscaping 🤣. Also...

I seriously worry about my Tesla gateway finally going out on me. Because I wonder if this networking issue had something to do with the failed update that bricked my solar. I know WiFi was good because my span panel and everything in my house was good. I just don’t understand why cellular and...

I meant the physical part of running Ethernet since everything was trenched to reach the gateway and breaker panel and there’s no more room left to run it through the original. And there’s no attic access on that side of the house. Too much work when it never goes out on WiFi until all the...

I’ve thought about that but not sure how to do it based upon its location and also that the Ethernet is used to plug into my span panel. Even the Ethernet quit working during this one too as my span was reporting no connection.

I reached out to Tesla and they had me reset and then after that didn’t work they told me to wait for Tier 2 support again… thankfully I fixed it after resetting the system for the 4th time. Idk 🤷‍♂️ The rain really came down hard for a long bit and water started to rise but thankfully it...

Ugh what now. Says no WiFi so I scan for WiFi and it says no WiFi available. There’s an ongoing outage but my WiFi is up and can see several of my neighbors WiFi on my phone yet power wall says no WiFi around. Anyone got any ideas how to fix this one? 😩

I mean Plan 2 would have me think about it. 11pm would prob still have me pass I think 9pm is the right spot for off peak for my usage. Also the free nights need to not be limited ie allows me to charge EV and PWs and no extra charges to allow for it. Pretty much I would want them to match JE...

Wow! Glad everyone is good.

I agree it was exciting for me too! I think it’s because when they pay you to take over 1000kWh from the grid it’s like payback for all the years we’ve been overcharged by utility companies. Enjoy it before they figure out the loophole we have haha.

So this past storm I had a neighbor get surged by lightning and lost a lot of stuff. I have a type 2 whole home surge protector in my breaker box but he was talking about having both type 1 and type 2 surge protection installed. I felt like my breaker style protector was enough to give my...

Now that I have the info you can delete if you want 😂

Ordered May 1st Stealth Grey / White interior Houston, TX Just updated from June 2024 to May 31 - June 28.

Yeah mines back to never giving me notifications even if I go in and turn them back off and on again. Also looks like you made the switch off JE just in time for the big bucks 😂

Finally all set back up. Had to logout and log back into Netzero as well as it was still trying to pull that African time zone but once I logged back in everything was good. Hopefully these are all good reference points for anyone that has a failed SW update next 😂

Fixed! Thanks I had never used that app before good to know.

Was trying to figure out why my powerwalls were not charging from the grid and noticed this is how things are setup now. I guess tomorrow I have to reach out to support again and get a ticket raised again. Unless someone else knows how to get grid charging back?

Never got a notification for an update. I wouldn’t have known it this time had it not bricked my gateway.

Also just for reference my software version is now 24.4.2 and prior to the issue it was 23.44.0

Update: Tesla finally got my system up and running again. As I and several others speculated was true. My powerwalls were doing an update and something went wrong and it pretty much did a factory reset on my entire gateway. When this happens the only way to get them set back up is with a...

Got to be kidding me!! This Model S is cursed legit cursed!!! 😂 someone this morning backed into my S and it shoved the bumper back and broke the clips that keep it on. (I assume it’s clips back there) I made the mistake of going inside to have them page someone and by the time I got back...

Yeah that’s what I have been piecing together. I’m not feeling confident about it yet but if Tesla doesn’t get to me by mid week I may give it a try and see what happens haha.

Since I have until possibly the 15th until I get an answer from Tesla I am trying to figure out my own solution. I did notice in the Netzero app since the system went out it shows the time zone has changed from America/Chicago to Africa… wonder what that means for things haha 😂

Legit would be perfect mount me two small trolling motors on each end of a 2x4 and I would be able to get to the high ground in no time or at least the beltway haha.

Being on the lake I have thought about getting an emergency kayak. 😂 just big enough for 2 adults and a chihuahua to escape in 😂

I’m on the west side of the lake but pretty much right on it. I can see the lake from my windows. They claim it never flooded here before but we shall see. HOA said the volunteer evac was only for the two streets closest to the lake. It was just hailing here a few mins ago but I think the main...

Yeah I used to be but my system went down at the worst time. Not only did I sit in the dark during the outage but now the HOA came and knocked on the door and said my street was under a voluntary evacuation for flooding and if we don’t leave need to prepare to shelter in place for a couple of...

I couldn’t agree more. There really isn’t a great option to switch too. I tell people already get Tesla equipment but whatever you do don’t buy it through Tesla. I wish I had gone that way, something as important as electricity I need someone local that can come out. Someone I can look in the...

Software upgrades??? Ohhhh lawd that’s probably how mine got jacked up. They got one guy left working there and he’s doing “upgrades” 🤦

Hope you have better luck than me on the issue I’m having. I haven’t got them to budge an inch saying they cannot do anything until tier 2 gets to my ticket. I did manage to get my grid power back to my house by just turning everything off and back on again. Tesla wants the system powered up as...

It’s like the whole system forgot everything. Like it was never setup or “commissioned”, my rate plan was deleted out of the app, it unpaired charge from solar from my car, and unpaired my phone from the powerwalls. I wish I knew how to properly configure it up under the setup wizard thing in...

That’s worth a try!

PW+ and Tesla Gateway 2 I am going go try the manager route and see what happens.

Latest update: Tesla pushed a file remotely to my system and now I don’t even have grid power which I do not even understand. I called them up and they said they cannot even troubleshoot since it’s been escalated and to just wait the 7-10 business days. Does anyone know a way to turn off the...

Also the error has changed now to this “Unable to start system: grid code needed to make sitemaster run”

So just got off chat support (which btw the website, app, and support options all have different times as to when they become available) Long story short they do not know why but my system was “decommissioned” in the system and they are escalating the issue and I should get a response in 7-10...

Well my house came back into the app but with no connection. When I connect to the gateway and hit start system I am getting this error. Anyone else see this before? I’ve reset everything as the troubleshooting steps on the Tesla app asked. I guess I have to wait until 11 when chat opens up and...

My app is tripping… I have logged out and uninstalled everything but it keeps doing this to me. Even my Model 3 is a side view of my S. LOL let’s see what support says how to fix this one 😂

Nice I have mine setup to be mostly self powered except when I run low or when I plug in a car. With the charging limited to free times makes it easier to decrease my grid usage.

I wish I knew how to create apps myself. All I want is an app with a nice UI that could pull in all my stuff from Tesla app, Span Panel, & HomeKit. Keep it all organized and in one place. I know I can hack it all into HomeKit or HA but that just always feels half baked.

I had a X3M from BMW of the Woodlands and I had a few issues (ambient light not even, sunroof squeak) and every time I came in for issues or an oil change I dropped my keys they put me in something nice and I would come back later and get my car. Tesla service has been a huge downgrade for me...

Agreed. I would love another BMW but the choices are massive grill or tiny grill and they have lost that BMW look I loved so much. PowerShare on a model Y would definitely bring Tesla back into the fold for me. I’m surprised that it’s taken so long for Tesla to implement PowerShare. Since I...

Yeah my reason is I only went with Tesla because they were so far ahead in range and battery tech and at the time the vehicles seemed to hold their value. After losing over 60k in value in just two years and numerous problems I was already debating not getting another. Now that Elon is cutting...

Hmmm I’m sure this plan works for some people but the idea of losing my free nights plus having to pay Tesla 30/mo just for car charging doesn’t make sense for me. Until they give true free nights for free they have missed me. Also given I am most likely not going to buy another Tesla makes...

Haha Just Energy is so hard to beat. Especially now knowing this!

🤣 I lean common sense so I am pretty sure I piss off most myself haha 🤣 it’s always in good fun though. Also not the web app now only notifies me when I am @ed but not for posts on this thread no matter my setting. Ugh

Nice!!
