Hey all,

I have been doing some troubleshooting but have not been able to find a solution to my problem. Specifically, I have a Vantage Pro2 console connected to a D-Link DIR-505 via a USB data logger, and I have an ISS and four additional temp/hum sensors. What I have discovered is when I connect the console to the D-Link, I lose two or three of my extra temp/hum sensor. The data is dashed out on the console, and I do not get any readings within Meteobridge. If I disconnect the router and reset the console, I can view all the extra sensors data, but as soon as I connect to the D-Link router, I lose data for two or three stations.

Currently running firmware 3.80 on the Vantage console, however I am currently unable to update to the latest firmware (3.88) as I keep getting a 'model number does not match' error. I have an email out to Davis on that one.

any thoughts as to what's going on??

Model number does not match? Are you using VP2_Wireless_3_88.exe and not VP2_Wireless_3_88_Envoy.exe?

yes, confirmed I have the right firmware file.

What kind of data logger are you sung with your Vantage? The USB version from Davis? Are you using a separate USB-serial adapter?

Symptoms look to me as if the the physical connection between console and the Meteobridge platform does insert RF noise into the console which interferes with data reception. This might be blocked by using USB cables with ferrite cores. Another thought is that using different mains connectors might also add static to the signal ground level.
