WiFi Dongle Security when using LAN
It is important to remember that when utilising LAN as your connection method, you will still need to secure the internal Wi-Fi dongle for network security purposes. Failure to do so will leave the access point open and the customers network vulnerable.
Please note: Only the Gen 2 and Gen 3 hybrid inverter, the All in One and Giv-Gateway have built-in WiFi.
