I elected to spec with the standard charger, and am currently using a Grizzle-E level 2 charger. I can connect to the vehicle via the Porsche connect app and start timers or pre-heat/cool the vehicle, however the connection is being mediated through Porsche servers (see screenshot).
It's my understanding that at some point in the future the subscription to Porsche connect will expire, and I'll have no way to communicate with the vehicle unless it's connected to wifi. My garage is across the street from my residences and they are set up on different wifi with two unique routers.
The question I have is there are any solutions to connect to PCM services through the Porsche Connect app when the phone and car are on separate WiFi? Maybe there are some after market chargers (Juicebox, etc) that provide a solution? Or maybe it's possible to connect the car to the Wifi in the garage, and then ssh into the network from my phone? I think the subscription to Porsche connect services last for at least a few years so it's not an urgent matter, but I am curious if anyone has a similar issue, and actions they tried to resolve it.
