I too would be really curious to see what Emporia says to these questions, but I am skeptical they will make a public statement.

It seems like they’re not developing this anymore though. There have been feature requests (like proper 240v support) that were promised years ago and never happened.

Knowing how businesses operate, I would bet that Emporia hired a contractor to develop the apps and backend stuff, and now that they finished the job and are no longer around, the current company staff know how to support things but they don’t have a highly skilled developer on the team to make major changes. That’s just my guess.

CGNAT is different than what you’re describing.

It’s multiple ISP customers sharing a single external IP at the same time. Cell service does this and starlink likely does too.

CGNAT is a bigger issue than simply a changing IP address.

yeah I agree this is important.

I almost bought a competitor device that cost almost double, because of this limitation.

I am glad I got the Emporia, but still disappointed with this limitation.

There’s a good chance these devices being installed and hardwired into electrical panels will be there for 10 years or longer.

Who knows if they will still be in business and running the cloud servers in the year 2033?
