Failed to charge message while still charging

Does anyone ever use other brands level 2 charger? I have Porsche mobile charge connect level two charge installed for my taycan.
people in taycan forum said they have no problem to use pmcc to charges other ev such as Eqs, ix, even for bolt. Today I use it on Eqs and it gave me error Authentication Failed Use Different Authentication Method or Charging Station. However it is charge shows blue bar and percentage is going up.

I wonder anyone else has this issue occurred before.

thanks in advance
Denny

It says "Authentication Failed" which seems to mean it's trying to negotiate payment to this connector. Maybe it thinks this is a public charging connector. Is there some setting you can change here?
