VE-can MPPT not being recognised properly

Hi anybody else with problems with MPPTs connected throug LAN?

Often my cerbo doesnt rekognize them and reports missing devices, today it shows one of the MPPTS (OST) corrupted as two devices named 0 8 WST (-> See screenshot)
I was wondering why we are producing so much energy :-)

no, only with lan.

altough they were new, I switched lan cables.

changed the names so that there are no german special characters.

now one of them doesn't report its name into vrm

Ok, what is the VRM-id of the system? I can have it looked at for you.
