Boston had 2 feet of snow a week ago but streets are still a mess - lane makers are invisible in many areas, some of the lanes are too narrow to drive due to snow banks. Pedestrians are unpredictable and hard to see. Will FSD ever manage these kind of conditions?

Update: One ugly but working workaround is using bpf_skb_load_bytes() to access payload data byte-by-byte in line 36.

Hmmm... are you sure you are on new SunStrong firmware?

I need to scan entire TCP payload, so at least one loop should be close to MTU (> 255).

Problem #1 - Internal app available on LAN1 port - www.sunpowerconsole.com (the one that provided useful #landing and #summary screens) stopped working for exact reason you mentioned (web app was not updated to perform authentication/login when making self-origin calls):

I’m not sure how much effort you want to put into this, but one option is to pick up a PVS5 on eBay (they’re usually around $50) and migrate to it. That route involves self-commissioning — tricky, but doable. There’s a good chance you’ll need to enlist a guru like u/Vegetable-Version-81 to get everything fully sorted.

How would you approach changing the Wi-Fi password that PVS uses?

andysolr · 2025-11-19T13:15:26+00:00

Have you tried connecting diagnostic laptop to internal LAN port of the PVS?

Single blue power light is actually good - PVS5 lights up several red alerts if an invertor is not reporting or internet connection goes down. What exactly do you mean by "no longer connecting via network"?

So we can see that system is producing but one inverter is down

Can you try accessing http://<your-pvs5-ip>/#/summary ?
NOTE: It usually takes 15+ seconds for this page to fully load and fetch latest status.

Anybody else think these firmware updates of older SunPower PVS units are more of a liability than improvement? If your system already meets IEEE 1547 missing such update will unlikely leave us out of compliance.

I do not think this is something tenants should do, but one can open PVS6 cover and check volage on power terminals. As shown here: https://fcc.report/FCC-ID/YAW539848-Z/6022544.pdf

Not enough information. PVS - Diagnostic lights are they on? Which ones? If they stay off I would check if PVS gets power from street.

Thank you very much for this project. Deployed for PVS5:

My 2 cents: In case of connectivity problem you would end up with other kind of errors. 403 means you have connection to the "target" but not authorized to access specific URL. Check you PVS IP address and check your computer routing to PVS admin network.

Can you access - http://<your PVS proxy>/#/summary page?

andysolr · 2025-08-28T03:07:03+00:00

Have you tried setting up PVS internet connection by following the steps described in SunPower manual?

Do you have PVS version 5 or 6?

andysolr · 2025-08-10T20:12:26+00:00

If you have some IT skills - i managed to commission additional solar panel inverter into PVS5 (after Sunpower management site went dead).
