Which model Intelliconnect has issues with dropping Wifi connection?

[drdavis01]

I read on here that there are two models of Intelliconnect. The first three letters of the model number are different. However, I cannot find that thread. Does anyone know what I am referring to and can point me to that thread? My Intelliconnect is new and just installed. I can get it to connect to wifi just fine, but it drops the connection sporadically with no consistency of how long before it drops. No set time. It is not signal strength, as I have wifi access point right next to the box.

Thanks!

Intelliconnect restarts Intelliflo VSF every 15 minutes​

Pentair IntelliConnect devices have two different board versions in distribution denoted by PIF or PNR. This problem is with the PNRA1 firmware. If you have the problem with the PNR version exchnage it for the PIF version.

Pentair support said in September 2021 it's a firmware issue they're working on and currently testing a beta fix.

Hi all, my pool build finished in June. Long time lurker of the forum, but first post (hopefully I've followed all the rules properly vis-a-vis profile, signature etc). I've since purchased and installed an IntelliConnect and I've upgraded my pump to an Intelliflo VSF so I can automate filter...

The IntelliConnect has an ESP32-WROOM-32E by Espressif Systems. It has a PCB antenna which gives limited range.
