Hello. My Meteobridge (TPLINK/USB) doesn't show any live data. I believe my unit updated today when it lost power and came back on. Prior to that, it had been up for many months so I'm guessing I jumped a few versions. Anyway, here is the log entry since last boot:

I have restarted the Vangate Pro 2 console a couple of time and it is receiving data from the ISS and its serial baud is set to 19,200. Otherwise, nothing else has changed. I did set my software version to "stick with 4.4" and it rebooted and downgraded, but still no console data seems to be showing. I haven't tried earlier versions; I'm not sure what I was on prior to today's power outage. Any help would be greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

I have the same problem after the meteohub update to 5.1e.

I notice that the log shows your station as devMH. Since you’re connecting your console to your tplink via USB I think your connection type has been corrupted. Check your primary station device setting under the station tab and see if it’s still set to USB.

Thanks for the suggestion. I confirmed it is set to Vantage and USB Serial (screen shot attached). You can see no "device" shows up (the list is blank). I also tried rolling back to v4.2. When I did so, there was no primary station set any longer. I set it to Vantage Pro 2/USB and saved it (2nd screen shot), but same thing as on 5.x:
logger (28.12.2020 21:40:14): can't open device /dev/ttyMH: No such file or directory
system (28.12.2020 21:40:38): stop of logging process initiated.

Is it possible your USB hub ( which is required ) has failed ?. If you have a spare you might try switching it.

Greetings! Just wanted to close the loop on this - the USB hub did indeed fail. I replaced it and everything is good again. Thanks for your help!

I was having the same issue with my 3020. After reading this thread, I went to the primary station page, changed the connection to tcp/ip, saved, then changed it back to USB, and saved. That got my connection back online.
