Data not reaching Wx nets

Post by Laxet »

Meteobridge Pro. We had a power bump yesterday. Since then, no data is reaching the wx nets. Weather Underground & PWS weather both say they are receiving updates, but there is no data. Data is being received on my Vantage Vue & my Weatherlink console from the ISS. I have attached two screens showing errors.

Attached is the System - Info tab
In case it matters, It is connected via cable to an Eero 6 port.

Sorry, as internal storage is no longer shown as available the Internal USB hub chip has failed. It needs to be replaced.

I would repair for free, but sending from US to Germany and back will be the issue. Do you have some electronics guy around locally who can replace a SMB IC? Item to be replaced is a FE1.1s which is a $1 piece:

It looks like I may be able to replace it myself. Is there a board layout drawing or photo available? BTW, the link you sent didn't work, but I was able to find them here with a quick search.

Worst case, I can finally upgrade to the Pro 2, which I've been trying to talk the wife into for some time.

Thank you for your help.

Here is shown how to open and close it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wn0_tM_jjZI&t=6s

You have to unsolder the OLED (which you can also replace once being there) and then you have to desolder the FE1.1s and replace with new one. When you have a rework soldering station with a hot air tube it is not too complicated.
