Does SunShift require an internet connection?

SunShift requires an internet connection, so the Dongle version connects to your Wi-Fi while the Gateway Version has a built-in roaming SIM to ensure you are always online.

In the case of a lost connection, SunShift will revert to a safe mode to ensure your batteries are sufficiently prepared in case a power outage occurs. 

Once communication is re-established, more optimised control will automatically resume.
