9. Connect to Enlighten

The Envoy-S requires a connection to the Internet for reporting to Enlighten. You can provide this
connection through an existing broadband router, other Wi-Fi access point, or by using the Enphase
Mobile Connect cellular modem.
WARNING! Risk of Equipment Damage. Do not remove power from the Envoy-S if the LEDs
are flashing green. This indicates that a software upgrade is in progress.
Connect to a broadband router using one of these methods, described in the following sections:

Method A: Integrated Wi-Fi


Method B: Enphase Mobile Connect (order CELLMODEM-02 separately)

Method C: Ethernet cable (not included, installer must provide). This method requires that you

use the ferrite bead included with the Envoy-S.
 Method D: Power Line Communication Bridges [order EPLC-02 (EU), EPLC-03 (UK) or EPLC-04
(AU) separately]. This method requires that you use the ferrite bead included with the Envoy-S.
Method A: Integrated Wi-Fi
The Envoy-S integrated Wi-Fi operates at both 2.4GHz and 5GHz and supports several wireless security
protocols in addition to Wi-Fi WPS. These include WEP Open System, WEP Shared Key, WPA-PSK, WPA2-
PSK, WPA-EAP, and WPA2-EAP.
To use the Enphase integrated Wi-Fi, you need a wireless
router.
a. On the Envoy-S, verify that no Ethernet cable is
plugged into the RJ45 port.
b. If your router supports WPS, press and hold the WPS
button on the wireless router for a few seconds. On most routers, a WPS LED begins flashing.
c. If you are using the Installer Toolkit mobile app, tap the Network button, tap Wi-Fi, and find and
select your network. If the wireless router does not support WPS, you may be prompted to enter
a password.
If you are not using the Installer Toolkit mobile app, you can only connect using WPS. Initiate a
WPS connection by pressing and holding the AP Mode button for 5 seconds.
