We always install a separate sub-panel for all Enphase circuits with the Envoy tied in the sub panel bas well. Communication is never an issue with this method. I have to say that Enphase may have (dare I say it) the most reliable monitoring available. One trick we've learned is, if possible, use the wps option to gain web access so that when your customer changes their WiFi password the Envoy is not locked out causing you to make another trip.
