We recommend always having your charger connected to Wi-Fi, as this allows you to make the most of the smart features included with your Pod Point. These benefits include managing your charging schedule using the Pod Point app, using 'Off mode' in the app to remotely lock your charger when you're not using it, and making it easy to keep your charger software up-to-date with over-the-air updates.

If your Wi-Fi does drop out though, don’t worry. Your EV will continue to charge, it just means that you will lose access to smart features for this period.

Pod Drive

To be eligible for Pod Drive you need to have a stable Wi-Fi connection. This is so we can ensure your car is always charged at the cheapest times, and to send any remote firmware updates to keep your charger up to date.
