    VPN Compatibility

    I plan to use it as a VPN in front of my current mesh system which does split the bands. I am hoping this still gives me the ability to specify which devices to include/excluded in the VPN umbrella. I am only semi network smart. I am thinking if the Aircove is not providing the IPs it may not be...

    Email from Tesla - Powerwall uses 3G Cellular Please connect to Wifi or Ethernet

    My GW2 is connected with Ethernet. I connected it with WiFi as well. Looks like this connection is the GW2: Device shows: LG Innotek Is that the WiFi manufacture for Tesla?

    Email from Tesla - Powerwall uses 3G Cellular Please connect to Wifi or Ethernet

    Is there a way to tell what order it will access the internet? Unless you can't change the order. I have ethernet connected. I don't mind setting up WiFi to remove the app message but prefer it on ethernet.

    NorCal Powerwall owners. What is your reserve percentage right now? (Late October 2021)

    Zero. We never have outages. I occasionally set it to 5% just in case of a minor hiccup.

    .99% Tesla loan down payment with CC :(

    I'm not very knowledgeable so others may need to chime in. I have the Tesla Backup Gateway 2. I don't have PG&E, thankfully.

    .99% Tesla loan down payment with CC :(

    Yes ACH. Solar & PW. I tried several phone #s on this board but it appears the new financing is only ACH.

    .99% Tesla loan down payment with CC :(

    Just thought I would share. I was unsuccessful in using a CC to pay my down payment with the semi-new Tesla loan. I have the .99% for 10 years.

    My wife just landed at SMF and they are held away from the gates due to lighting strikes. There is a little drizzle here in Roseville but I can see the stars.

    Tesla app version 4.0.0 has app re design for both car and energy

    I'm a sucker for betas and next versions. I must say the main graphic depicting energy distribution is horrible. Why do we need a huge graphic of a house and small text. Must be for iPhone users. :o JK lol

    Can I ask Tesla to change my referral powerwall to powerwall+?

    I'm a newbie but with everyone's help on here and watching my resent install there is no difference in the Powerwall itself. I have a 2.1 setup without + but the PW itself is the third gen. Like others have said you with need to add the + invertor.

    Three weeks post Install Questions

    Yes local, we also have a small power plant. Rates are .09 first 500, .13 after that. No TOU. I'd imagine they run over PG&E lines but for 20 years I don't think we've ever had a large scale outage, even during Gov Davis with the rolling blackouts. In 20 years I don't think I have ever lost...

    Three weeks post Install Questions

    Surrounded by PG&E electric land, but not in my city (Roseville), we only have PG&E for gas. We have our own electric utility with great rates and they are not part of CA ISO. Which means they can and do buy more expensive electricity when need to avoid black-outs.

    Three weeks post Install Questions

    Thanks everyone for the responses. I will try to answer and provide some Tesla App screenshots. Reserve is set to 5%. Self-power mode. 1-2 times a night AC comes on. I just realized by looking at app details the Powerwall’s are starting to drain late afternoon when production starts to drop...

    Three weeks post Install Questions

    Hi All - Great forum. I've learned so much. My install was three weeks ago and I'm currently waiting for Tesla to re-submit permit as they moved the Inverter and Gateway. I've been running pre-PTO, other than the obvious my local city utility being upset. Any advice or secrets to run...

    Powerwall 2+ or wait for the 3?

    Not in my area Sacramento. 8.16kW and 2 PWs. Now its been a week since install and nothing has taken place. My city is super quick with permit process and utility.

    In NorCal I could have had install the day after permit.

    Powerwall 2+ or wait for the 3?

    I'm in NorCal and ordered w/ Tesla. Took two months to install 8.14 and two PWs. Waiting for Tesla to fix the Backup GW2 and change the plans to get a inspection. My city is really quick with plan review, permit, inspections, and PTO. Tesla on the other hand is slooow.

    Tesla Solar 10-year loan, 10% down, 0.99 APR

    Tesla changed order from PW+ to PW2 - Worth it to still move forward?

    Interesting I just received two emails from my advisor. I was shocked to get something from him. I wanted to confirm if you're still looking to move forward. The plans for the plus option for battery was denied by Roseville. This set up is where the inverter and gateway are combined instead of...

    Tesla changed order from PW+ to PW2 - Worth it to still move forward?

    Thanks for the great info. Good point. I just added a EV hard wired charger w/ 60A circuit for a new Mustang Mach-E. Should I update Tesla now or wait until install? I really don't want to slow this down. All my plans are completed and submitted to the city. I was under the impression...

    Thanks everyone for the responses. I'm cut out for projects. I might now know a great deal but always know to ask for advice which is why I posted. I've gone through three new home constructions and built pools right after move-in. I have completed owner build pools and can certainly handle...

    Tesla changed order from PW+ to PW2 - Worth it to still move forward?

    Would appreciate comments. Today Tesla told me accept Powerwall 2 or cancel my two-month-old order. You can all imagine the headache most of us endure with Tesla customer service. It’s been a terrible experience. I had to call regularly to address issues and move things along. My plans got...

    Tesla Solar 10-year loan, 10% down, 0.99 APR

    Yes, but I really don't want a large loan. My HELOC is only 2.9% and I can pay it off in a couple years. I totally understand you can invest... My "boss" doesn't want to see a large loan.

    Tesla Energy has the worst Customer Service. Regret getting Tesla

    Yes customer service from these so called Advisors is non existent. Not sure who they're Advising. I'm on my third Advisor in nearly four weeks. I've called and emailed numerous times, zip, nothing. The other advisors are nice. My Powerwall placement request was ignored even after speaking...
