Possible Causes

Incorrect OCPP server settings in Walli configuration, Internet connectivity loss at site, Faulty Walli communication module, TLS/handshake incompatibility after update

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: This is a network issue; it does not directly affect electrical safety.

Steps:

  • Check local network: Verify that the site router and internet connection are working by testing another device on the same network.
  • Verify OCPP settings: In the Walli app or installer portal, confirm the OCPP server URL, port, and credentials are correct.
  • Time and date: Ensure the Walli charger's time and date are correct (via NTP or manual setting), as TLS connections can fail with incorrect time.
  • Reboot charger and router: Power cycle both the Walli charger and the network router.
  • If E17 persists: Contact the backend provider to confirm server status. If other chargers connect fine, the Walli communication module may be defective and require replacement.
