I have recently moved a BT Wholehome Wifi disc a little closer to the Console (10cm now; was 100cm) , so I guess that *might* be "interfering" in some way - I will try moving it further away again to see if that solves the problem. I have already re-seated the WLIP logger a few times. Incidentally, if Davis no longer make the WLIP logger, does anyone know what the the preferred method now is of getting the data from the weather station to weewx etc?
I may also try the different drive that was suggested in https://groups.google.com/g/weewx-user/c/q67cvEsXtjQ/m/7difZtkUAgAJ. Regarding the question in https://groups.google.com/g/weewx-user/c/q67cvEsXtjQ/m/J9W5KA7rAQAJ, I haven't changed anything on my network, other than moving a few ethernet cables for other devices around, due to an unstable Sky TV connection. Thanks to everyone that has commented on this to help me find a solution. Much appreciated. David. On Tuesday 5 December 2023 at 00:25:06 UTC Tom Keffer wrote: > That's certainly possible.
