Possible Causes

Weak Wi-Fi signal at charger location, Interference from other wireless devices, Faulty Wi-Fi module on main control PCB, Outdated firmware affecting network stack

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Network troubleshooting does not require opening the unit; keep covers closed unless power is off.

  • Check signal strength: Use a smartphone near the wallbox to check Wi-Fi signal. If weak, move the router closer or add a Wi-Fi extender.
  • Change Wi-Fi channel: Log into your router and select a less congested channel to reduce interference.
  • Firmware update: When connected, update the Porsche wallbox firmware to the latest version.
  • Switch to Ethernet: If possible, run an Ethernet cable to the wallbox for a more stable connection.
  • Technician module replacement: If connectivity remains unstable despite strong signal and correct settings, the Wi-Fi module on the main control PCB may be defective and require board replacement.
