Ambient Weather WS-2902 WiFi Smart Weather Station fails to deliver data
Raw
gistfile1.txt
Ambientweather's servers had problems some problems which led to a data delivery failure
Their server problems were resolved, however, they use Amazon Web Services (AWS)
They changed to a new AWS server, left the old one running, but the old one doesn't process data, or the authentication credentials of our WS-2902 were not present.
The old server does, however, give an OK response when sent data - we were sending data, the server said it was OK, it wasn't
The WS-2902 console caches the IP address of the remote server and does not renew it ever (as far as I can tell)
Removing power and battery backup from the weather station and then plugging it back in clears the IP address / Hostname cache.
The Ambientweather station is now talking to a new server that does process data.
Ambientweather.net and all downstream weather services should be getting updates as of 2022-09-26 1240
This may also have been caused by hostname caches of DNS responses in the Edgerouter firewall.
