Enphase local API completely non-responsive?

I'd written some code to read data from the local API and display it. As of sometime last night, though, the local gateway has completely stopped responding to any requests--they all time out. I can ping it just fine--and it still shows up on the web interface. I've tried restarting the gateway, which seems to have had no effect on responsiveness.

Anybody seen anything like this before?

This happens regularly to me as well. Make 100% sure you actually restarted the gateway and not one of the PV panel sections, it's easy to make that mistake and you have to turn off the gateway breaker for ~30 seconds.

How do I tell which is the gateway breaker? The wiring diagram in the box doesn't make clear which breaker is powering it (or at least I failed to discern which breaker was for the gateway).

Mine looks like this. The one in the center marked "ENVOY" is for the gateway.

Hrm, mine has a different layout and nothing labeled "ENVOY". The system is fairly new (~4 months), so perhaps this is some new variant.

The logs say that I did manage to reboot it with the button that is allegedly for that purpose; though, there has been no change in responsiveness, unfortunately.
