Data Mismatches

I have an interesting thing going on Cumulus MX 3.25.2 b. I had a power outage last night (~5 hours). Power company equipment failure. The outage lasted longer than all my UPS could supply backup power. My Davis Vantage Pro 2 console with an attached IP data logger didn't go down, but the network di...

Re: WeatherLink IP Stopped Connecting

Well after seriously considering throwing Cumulus out with the bath water and moving on to something else. In desperation, I took another Pi out of the drawer, because everyone has a half a dozen of those laying around right? I flashed it with Mark's CMX Pi Image and then unzipped 3.11.4 (b3133) ove...

Re: WeatherLink IP Stopped Connecting

Well just to make sure the new router wasn't part of the problem, which I was 98% sure it wasn't, I put the old router back in place and everything else like it was before. Problem still present. Something in my Cumulus installation is corrupt.

Re: WeatherLink IP Stopped Connecting

The router doesn't handle their local LAN traffic. Is the dumb switch connected to the router? What do the two devices have set as gateway? The IP loggers use the LAN address on the router. The dumb switches don't have configurations for gateway. They are auto uplink. The LAN side of the router is ...

Re: WeatherLink IP Stopped Connecting

No go on the other Weatherlink IP. Same connection errors for both WLIP on CumulusMX 3.11.46 (build 3133). It was worth a shot. It does tell me that the problem lies with my pi CumulusMX install though.

Re: WeatherLink IP Stopped Connecting

My money would be on your router causing the problem. Possibly blocking the particular Comms required to your weather station. @mcrossley will be able to advise a bit better than me, but I think it's a particular protocol that is being blocked. The router isn't the issue. Like I mentioned in my ori...

WeatherLink IP Stopped Connecting

My Cumulus 3.11.4 (build 3133) stopped receiving station data after changing out my Ubiquiti Edge Router and installing a Fortinet 30E. The WeatherLink IP and my pi aren't even plugged directly into the Fortinet. They are plugged into separate dumb Linksys switches on the same LAN that they have alw...

Re: Hybrid IP Logger/WWL CumulusMX Setup

Thanks for the response Mark. That narrows the intended design info I need to continue my troubleshooting. I'll keep playing with it. The worse thing I can do is break it. :mrgreen:

Hybrid IP Logger/WWL CumulusMX Setup

I have been a long time Cumulus user. Started way back with SandaySoft running Cumulus on a dedicated laptop that was also running home automation before it was a thing. I'm currently running MX 3.9.2 build 3097 on rpi buster. I feed my wireless Davis VP2 plus data to CumulusMX via a Davis IP logger...
