We had to fight with the installer to have our Solar Inverter connected to Ethernet, even though there was a cable already in place. Unfortunately we won the fight for the Inverter but lost the fight for the PowerWall.
I know that at least one Manufacturer who is deprioritising warranty claims on âsmartâ Car Charger wallboxes unless they were connected by Ethernet at the time of installation.

@Salvo It is insane and frustrating how these things are built. I went through a similar situation with the builder of our home with ethernet cable runs. đ¤Śââď¸

Builders are incompetent.

Yep. Our builder gave the electricians the incorrect plans.
They had to come back to run the electrical extra cables so we had some gaping holes in the plasterboard in the two master bedrooms. That was the least of our problemsâŚ
