Yes, two things. Firstly to access the VM hub in modem mode the address to connect to is ‘192.168.100.1’. Or, if you really want to put the hub back into router mode, you could always factory reset it. There is a small hole on the back of the hub, if you stick a bent paperclip or similar in the hole and keep it pressed in for a good 40 seconds; the hub should reset itself back to factory settings, ie router mode.
Incidentally, who suggested that you put the VM hub back into router mode, wasn’t one of VM’s offshore call centre workers was it, by any chance? Alas they have about as much technical nous as my cat - but their suggestion got you off the phone and they chalked up another successful closed call - so it's not all bad!
Think about it, suppose you did put your mesh into bridge mode - they would still be broadcasting the same WiFi setup, why would your Tesla suddenly connect?
You have, absolutely have been mis-informed. There is something odd between your Tendas’ and what the Tesla expects - and that needs to be investigated.
Thanks for the reply - really appreciate that and it was advice from a call centre!!
The error message I get in the car is to check the DHCP settings so I think it must be something to do with the fact that the car can’t find a single stable ip to connect to perhaps and is finding various APs and is confused - but my technical knowledge is only slightly better than your cat so not 100% sure!
ive tried turning all but the main mesh nodes off and it still wouldn’t connect so thought it was worth trying it again in router mode - but couldn’t see why that would work just didn’t have any other suggestions. And Tesla just say to reset the car - which also doesn’t work!
