Meteobridge: not automatically reconnect when Wifi fails?

Post by bjornk_ »

Last week, the power in my house was switched off for a short time due to works. The internet connection of my Meteobridge (TL-MR3020V3, version 5.5) was not automatically restored after that, so the device was offline for a few days. And I didn't notice it.

Turning it off and on once solved the problem.

How can I avoid something like this? Is there a setting in the Meteobridge to automatically restart it if the Wifi network temporarily fails or is unavailable?

It''s possible the MB rebooted quicker and before your router completely re-started? On the System>Administration tab in the Maintenance box there should be a Boot Delay option which can be set to wait a number of minutes before commencing the boot cycle, this can give the router time to boot first before the MB reboots

Hi, that sounds as a good idea, but I don't see this option when using the System > Administration tab.

Don't have a MR3020 to confirm, this may only be a MBPro or Nano option then?
