I'm near the end of a 2-month stay in Arizona. For six weeks I monitored my weather station back in Michigan (WMR968-->NSLU2-->Linksys router on DD-WRT-->Wunderground (KMIREADI2),) until a power failure. That left no data flowing to WUnderground, and no Internet access back to the NSLU2 although I retain access to the router.
A neighbor went over to my home and restarted the NSLU2. It didn't come back on line, although as I said the router is accessible. Rebooting the router from AZ didn't help.
So 2-3 weeks of data never got to WUnderground. Assuming that the weather station data continues to be collected in the NSLU2, is there a way to upload it all to WUnderground when I get home in a week? Thought I'd ask here first, WUnderground second.
Would disconnecting the router and NSLU2 probably have fixed the off-line problem? I could still ask the neighbor to make another trip into the house.
NSLU2 off line. Can I restore WU data?

Re:NSLU2 off line. Can I restore WU data?
Can Meteohub upload accumulated data to Weather Underground upon reconnection?
I have this response to my question from WUnderground:
"If your data logger is still gathering the data, then in theory you should be able to upload the historical data when you reconnect with us(there should be a setting in your software that says 'upload history upon reconnection'). We don't have much information about how meteohub works though, so we can't say for sure that this is an option."
I'll be home in a week to do what I can.

Re:NSLU2 off line. Can I restore WU data?
Before you get your hopes up, there's not currently a setting in Meteohub to upload historical data to WU. There has been discussion about it in the past (and I think someone worked out, or was at least working on, a perl script to send historical data from a backup file on their PC, but I don't know its status.)
The general consensus at that point was that dealing with historical data was a low priority compared to the other things we were pressing for the NSLU2 to be capable of doing, and with limited processing power it wasn't worth pursuing further at the time.

I see that crm0922, working on the issue a year ago, was just about to post a script, saying it was working well, when the thread ended in the Whishes forum. I'll email him if I can figure out how.
