[RE-wrenches] Enphase and Quantum Fiber

[Tyrone Houck]

Not sure about enphase but most inverters need a 2.4ghz band.. alot of time
fiber providers install a router that has a 5g/6e or something like that..
typically has both bands built in with a firewall that requires logging in
to the network settings and allowing the device access. Alternatively you
could install a secondary router or extender to convert it to a 2.4. Or a
wifi to access point to get the cables connection.. Best of luck!
