From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).
I had to replace my router when it died and now I am not getting my reading from my Davis weather station to the Cumulus software. I keep getting an error message about it is unable to initialize. I have restarted Cumulus a number of times and even shut down the computer and when restarting the computer I still get this error.
I know one thing that has changed is the IP range went from 192.168.0 to 198.168.1 which makes me ask what the IP Address in the Station Configuration page is supposed to be pointing to? I have done nothing to that in years and I just don't remember anymore what the purpose of that IP Address is.
So right now my station is off the air completely until I get this resolved.
What Operating system and device are you running CumulusMX on?
What type of weather station?

CumulusMX on Raspberry Pi4 B+ 2GB, running on Raspbian Buster booting from USB SSD
from a Davis Vantage Vue with VP2 ISS.
If it is a WiFi attached Davis as your profile says then you need to change that IP address as that is how Cumulus talks to the weather station. If you use the Admin interface of your router you should be able to see the IP address of the Davis station that the router has allocated.
You then need to put that into the Davis configuration in the Cumulus station setup.
At the moment you still have the old IP address in Cumulus and since that Network no longer exists it cannot find the Davis station.
I finally got it working. It was a combination of things. First was the router replacement. I got one from the local cable company on the advice of my Son-in-Law who works there. It was an older model that looked like a big black brick called a Wave 2 Router. It wanted to do things its way, not the way my system had been setup before. so all the settings got changed before I realized it. And because of all the messing around, my ISP's software decided someone might be hacking into my system and blocked my IP address. I never gave that a thought, but they finally contacted me and between them unblocking my IP address and my going back to my older backup router, things are working now.
What a hassle!
