Gaps in uploading to WU
I recently changed my internet service from Spectrum to Verizon Home Internet 5G. Then I had trouble with the fan in my Raspberry PI. So I powered down the Raspberry PI, fixed the fan, and powered it back up. I'm just giving background info here. The upload problem started showing up 4 days after the Verizon setup and 1or 2 days before I powered down the Raspberry PI. So does anyone have any clues as to why I am showing the gaps in the upload? I am now uploading through Davis and it's an absolute solid line.

Re: Gaps in uploading to WU
So I've done some experimenting. I had the number of retries set to 2, so I changed it to 5. The same gaps are showing up. So then I set the number of retries to 10, which seems to be working so far. If anyone else has any suggestions I'd be willing to try them.
Re: Gaps in uploading to WU
When you are doing "rapid file" mode with WU (upload interval less than a minute) I recommend not to do any retries at all, as within a few seconds fresh data will be transferred anyway.
When there is an upload issue (WU server lame, routing problem, etc) and you fire uploads at a high frequency and you are doing retries your send queue in the Meteobridge will fill up and start blocking other operations.

Re: Gaps in uploading to WU
Thanks for your suggestions which is my next move. So changing my retries didn't improve the problem. So I changed over to Davis to send the info and this morning when I checked the gaps showed up again once again pointing the problem that it is probably WU's problem. I'm heading over right now to try the new suggested settings.
Thanks
Thanks

you can see on "Monitoring - Upload Status" tab which uploads Meteobridge has done and status of those.
