good point. I guess in this age of internet connected devices and exploits I have gotten in the habit of trying to update whatever I can. before weewx the console didn't change daylight savings on the correct dates but with weeex that isn't an issue anylonger. -- You received this message

Update: I upgraded my console to the latest and greatest firmware. Still seeing network issues so the problem isn't the console firmware. I'm using an Ethernet to WiFi bridge between logger and network. I think that is my issue. Going to make some network changes to see if I can isolate my

Thanks, Doug Could you put your comments in the Wiki? That way it will be easier for someone to find, rather than search through the nearly 5,000 topics in weewx-user. Perhaps something in the hardware section? -tk On Tue, Dec 26, 2017 at 7:53 PM,
