However, I've seen all sorts of relatively unexplainable electrical interference affecting the communications with the Envoy box. This may either be between the microinverters on the roof and the Envoy or between powerline network adaptors between the Envoy and the router. William Miller was referring going through a tough case of this a while ago.</span></p>
