That's the most important piece of the puzzle.Indications are that for the device[1] a wired connection is required, but I have asked for confirmation. I know the Hub is not a charger[2], but to qualify for the OLEV grant, the Hub is also required. It also means everything is a good deal easier to manage. {trying hard not to sound petulant} In any event, if I thought that wireless connectivity was available (details are appallingly lacking in that regard), I wouldn't be asking the questions. Yeah, I should have specified in my initial post, obviously. I know - wise after the event. :-) [1] https://myenergi.com/product/hub/ [2] https://myenergi.com/product/zappi/
Don't know if you've found it already or not but the user forum is a much better source of information. This seems pretty unequivocal though:

I'm not sure I'd buy the specific unit you linked to originally but yes, basically you can choose from one of the countless wifi extender options and use it as ethernet bridge. TP-Links are a solid bet for cheap+reliable.
