My meteobridge won't finish its "rapid blink" mode, and I can't seem to get it fixed.
Some weird stuff with this, too...
1. System went down this AM with a power outage. It came back up (Wunderground, but not CWOP), and I could see logged data on the WU site. CWOP indicated no data received. Live-data page of the meteobridge showed "success" with data transfer to both sites.
2. I unplugged and rebooted the meteobridge... at this point it won't get past the rapid-blink mode (currently running for about 30 minutes). Now, I can't even log in to the meteobridge, and just get to the "landing page".
3. Finally tried a "factory reset" (hold the reset button until it blinks five times). Still no success. The landing page is showing FW1.4, if that helps?
Meteobridge won't finish boot

Re: Meteobridge won't finish boot
I changed "meteohub" into "meteobridge" in your posting, which you certainly talk about.
WU does not always show received data immediately. So please don't use WU to judge if the system is reporting fine.
Reason why it did not come up after reboot is most probable because network settings on "Network" tab were not correct.
When you do changes there, these are applied on the next boot. So things misconfigured there will show up later and might
be a bad surprise as just experienced by you. Therefore, the wiki recommends to always use "save and apply and reboot" button
when changing network parameters to make sure that you immediately see the problem, when changes do not work.
When your Meteobridge is connected with Ethernet cable to your LAN and you do "factory reset" correctly, then it will come up again for sure.
