Silly question, For the last 2 years my flashed TP link /tl -Mr3020 has worked flawlessly, End of November my phone / internet line developed an issue and I had no Internet for 3 days. The Tech fixed the issue and rebooted my internet router. After a few days I realised my Davis vantage view weather station wasnt updating even though the TP Links Power light and WPB/Reset light was on (Solid)
So I did what I thought was the most obvious thing and unplugged the TP-Link and Plugged it back it.
Now its just the power light that on
So Davis usb is plugged into the USB Port and the power into the micro usb port
When plugged in the WPS light flashes slowly for about a minute
Then very fast
What should I be doing next? (Should I be pressing the WPS on my wifi router) (I did and it doesnt seem to have done anything)
Thanks for any advice in advance
Ian

Re: Help - No Decode after Internet Router Reboot
Well there could be a lot of things going on. We would need to perform some added tests to understand what the problem is.
I believe that fast LED blinking that remains after more than 3 minutes means no network connectivity. You may need to reset the Meteobridge's networking.
Reset to default network operation is done by pressing the button and keeping it pressed until LED flashes once. Now release button and system will restart with default network configuration, which is LAN DHCP client mode.
It is important to release the button once it flashes once because if you keep it held longer it resets the password at 2 flashes and resets the whole thing deleting your data if you wait for 5 flashes.
If you were connected previously with WiFi you'll need to reconfigure that again using an Ethernet cable. Plug the Meteobridge directly into the WiFi router's Ethernet LAN ports. Even if that is not the desired location and you want to use the Meteobridge with WiFi you'll first need to configure that via Ethernet. What likely happened is that your WiFi network name and/or WiFi password has changed than what was originally programmed. The Router's WPS button is not a supported feature on the Meteobridge.
Then I would start by finding out what IP address the Meteobridge has and if you can reach it via your computer browser.
One of the simplest methods to try and find the Meteobridge is to use the MagicIP URL:
http://magicip.meteobridge.com/
If that doesn't work then I suggest using of of the many other methods to find out the IP address of the Meteobridge:
https://www.meteobridge.com/wiki/index. ... n_your_LAN
Once you are in the interface of the Meteobridge if there are still problems you can get more clues by reading the messages under System / Logging tab.
TIP: If you disconnected things like USB Logger from your console it is recommended that you pull the batteries and power, secure the connection with the USB Logger and then restore the batteries and power adapter. Then reboot the Meteobridge.

Re: Help - No Decode after Internet Router Reboot
Connected the TP Link box to the router and got an IP address and logged in, no problems there, Unplugged the Ethernet cable to try wifi and couldn't log back into that IP address. Tried various times. Reran IP scanner and noticed a previously dead IP address had come alive and hey presto it was the meteolink.
So Im back uploading.
Though missing a month's worth of data on the webpage, any idea how to upload the missing data?
Thanks for the help

Re: Help - No Decode after Internet Router Reboot
The Ethernet and WiFi each have their own separate MAC address on any networked device, so depending on which method you use to connect to your network will result in a different IP address being handed out to the TP-Link. This is normal for any networked device that has more than one network connection, ie a laptop.
The TP-Link has no real database, so there is no importing of data. Any missing data can be added manually by editing the max/min table.
