Accessing the Conguration Manager
In order to access the Conguration Mana-
ger, the Audi Wallbox oers two possibilities:
› via the Audi Wallbox's Wi-Fi Hotspot (acti-
vated upon powerup)
› using the Audi Wallbox's IP-Address or
hostname via the local network
The Audi Wallbox's Hotspot is always
activated after the Audi Wallbox has started
up when being (re-)connected to the power
supply. For accessing the Conguration
Manager via the local network, the Audi
Wallbox must already be connected to this
network. Therefore, this is only possible after
an initial setup, through the Wi-Fi hotspot.

to the Conguration Manager, all other
browser windows and tabs should be
closed. In addition, it is advised to clear
the browser’s cache.
