Getting the Enphase IQ Gateway to function is painful. Ultimately, I needed to have a technician come out and assist me in getting this connected to wifi.
Guide to connecting Enphase IQ Gateway
According to Enphase documentation the IQ Gateway supports the following.
- 802.11b/g/n (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz)
- 10 m (32.8 ft)
- There is an optional ethernet jack for hardwired installations.
Issues with the following
- mixed 2.4 GHz/5 GHz networks
- wifi 6
- advanced settings such as band steering
What works
-Setup an IoT compatible network
-On the Verizon CR1000A it is fairly simple
-On ubiquiti there is an Enhanced IoT wifi mode that is enabled via a checkbox in the wifi settings.
-Reboot the wifi access point
Once this is performed you may still have issues
-Enphase IQ Gateway requires a strong wifi signal. One of the gateways would not pickup the wifi signal from the Enlighten app despite my phone getting reception. At this point, I called a technician who was able to get this to function.
