"A car is found but it is not responding to connection request" - Zurginator - 07-10-2026
Howdy,
I've recently been trying to connect to my Polestar 2 to clear some error messages I caused, but I can't get Orbit to connect anymore. Worth pointing out that I have previously connected and installed modules using this exact combination of laptop/ethernet/cable. I have even tried rolling back to a known working version of Orbit, but I keep getting the same error:
"A car is found but it is not responding to connection request"
I've tried deep sleep on the car, pulling the TCAM battery + 12v, adding a firewall exception, completely disabling the Windows firewall, using an old 'known-working' version of Orbit, using the latest version of Orbit...
I'm out of ideas. Suggestions?

Have you tried restarting the laptop? Also is it a direct lan connection or via dongle/usb?

Multiple times, and also different ports. I'm using a dongle, same one I used previously - it stays connected to the cable.

Try to remove the network hardware from devmgmt.msc reconnect it at a new adapter will be installed with the default settings, then try again.
I assume its a windows device.
Best Regards JOS
