I also see that traffic, user agent is "curl/8.2.1" and the destination is Akamai. I don't see the exact IP you do, but since you're east coast and I'm west coast that makes sense. I took a look further, and for the IP I'm seeing with the curl user-agent (23.221.76.66) I see... www.tesla.com...

Yes, curl is just a command line utility for downloading things over http/https. Pretty common to use it in scripts to pull things from web servers. In this case it’s connecting to Akamai which is probably where Tesla store firmware updates and other things they need to distribute widely.

For some reason mine only allows pay as you go.... I'd prefer the auto reload approach.

^^^ This ^^^ After going through all the questions about the car, it then asks for email address and phone number without presenting any useful info. No thanks, browser window closed.

Yes and yes

If it's connected to your local network then you can get info out via its REST api. It's supported by home assistant too.

Assuming it's a Gen 3, and also assuming that your breaker is correctly sized, then check the commissioning section in the manual. https://www.tesla.com/sites/default/files/support/charging/Gen3_WallConnector_Installation_Manual.pdf

Type 2 connector Normally used in Europe, not the US.

If you're looking for compatibility, as far as I can tell the Eagle 3 API is the same as previous generations. HomeAssistant had no problems with it, and the few shell scripts I knocked together worked fine too.

I have an Eagle3 on PG&E in Fremont. It failed to add through the website when I tried it, but the PG&E support people were very helpful and were able to add it. Weirdly it's lost connection a couple of times, but I was able to re-connect it via the website and it quickly came back online.

I had the happen a few months ago, it fixed itself overnight. Nothing I tried made any difference at the time.

I have Home Assistant setup to monitor and graph the usage of my wall connector. Sure your car can log the charging statistics too, but if you have multiple cars, especially multiple cars on different Tesla accounts, then it's easier to have it all in one place. It could be especially useful...

The only functionality I can think of that you wouldn't see on other "chargers" is that with the wall connector you can restrict use to only Tesla cars, or to only certain Tesla cars. If the wall connector is going to be outside then that's useful, if it's going to be in your garage then it...

Supposedly it's in testing, but not yet available. At least from this.
