Aculink Bridge Disconnect Issue

Post by w4jtb »

I've had several disconnects between my Aculink Bridge and Meteobridge.

I follow the steps of rebooting and then save apply reboot.

I reset the Internet bridge.

Still no good.

What's odd, is that most of the times the fix is to stop uploading to Weather Underground and CWOP.

Once I turn that off and back on, then the data begins showing again.

Any idea what's happening here?

Thanks.

Update:

I had another disconnect, and it was late at night so I turned off uploads from Meteobridge and ran them through My Backyard weather.

I should note that the TP Link was running fine and it and the Acurite Bridge are isolated from the router. The TP Link continued to work as a bridge perfectly fine sending data to my backyard weather. All sensors were showing full strength and the standard 15 minute uploads were being sent to WU through MBW. No issues. It continued to report all night.

This morning I rebooted Meteobridge and everything began working again on the Meteobridge end.

This leads me to believe there is an issue with the software. If the servers for Meteobridge are down, does this cause an issue the software not reading sensor data?

If so, is there a solution? USB stick?

If so again, what are the steps for loading from a USB stick? If anyone has any other help they can provide it would be much appreciated.

Still having this issue with no resolution.

Every time it starts to rain, Meteobridge stops collecting data from the outdoor sensor.

However, as you will see in the attachments, the sensors are fully functional and report perfectly fine through AcuLink Backyard Weather.

Is this something within the software, a reset that needs to initiate?

Please help me out. I'm here to answer any questions the admins have.

Am I confused in the fact that the 5 in 1 is supported by Meteobridge, yet no response to this issue after this amount of time?

Is this an issue with Acurite not working well with others (which I've heard is the case), or is it simply not enough people have reported this issue and "We have no clue why this issue is happening"? I mean anything would be nice.

Going back to my old solution which was flawless. Your support for a paid product stinks.

Here's what I did that seemed to fix all issues. I wish I'd received support, but it looks like it was an error on my end.

I didn't check the box for "Integrate client on Meteobridge's LAN..." in network

It has worked flawlessly since I did that.

Please let me know if that was my issue in case someone else runs into this.

First of all sorry for my late reply. Please post Meteobridge related problems in the Meteobridge section of the forum, which I monitor rather closely.
I wonder that the Aculink bridge was able to report data to the Acurite server without having set the mark.

The fix only worked for a short time. It continues to stop logging as soon as it rains or humidity hits 99%+. No ideas at this point.
