  21. Hi I have a the Growatt SPF 5000 TL HVM-P and have just started using SolarAssistant ( very happy with SolarAssistant ) I have now upgraded to a hama double shielded usb2.0 cable and was just about to get Ferrite beads. My Pi 4B connects via the SolarAssistant pylontech comms cable is perfectly happy. But I am experiencing issues with the connection to the inverter - connects then drops...connects than drops - I need a stable connection to update the settings on the inverter as my wifi dongle is playing up too. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Hi I have a the Growatt SPF 5000 TL HVM-P and have just started using SolarAssistant ( very happy with SA ) But I am experiencing the exact same thing regarding connection to the inverter - connects then drops...connects than drops - I have upgraded to a hama double shielded usb2.0 cable and was just about to get Ferrite beads....hmmm so it could be a bigger issue. My Pi 4B connected via the SA pylontech cable is perfectly happy. But I need a stable connection to update the settings on the inverter as my wifi dongle is playing up too. So would also love some assistance
