Davis Instruments PRODUCT SUPPORT Important Notice about your Davis WeatherLink.com serviceFebruary 18, 2011Dear Davis WeatherLinkIP Customer,Next week, Davis Instruments is upgrading its WeatherLink servers to provide more capacity and quicker response for its customers. On Wednesday, February 23, 2011, between 6:00 PM and 10:00 PM Pacific Time (-8GMT), all WeatherLinkIP servers will be unavailable for approximately 1-2 hours to make hardware changes for this increased bandwidth.Who will this change affect?Most WeatherLinkIP users will NOT be affected by this process and service will be restored automatically after the maintenance is complete.You will only need to make changes to your system if you have specific rules defined in a firewall or other web filtering product by IP address. If you have set specific filtering rules, you may have to make a change to your system to prevent problems communicating with weatherlink.com. Read the instructions below or, if you have a Systems or Network administrator, please forward this message to them for review.What do I need to do if I am affected by the upgrade process?During the upgrade period on the Wednesday, the Davis IP addresses will change and will require a change to Davis’s DNS records. For the majority of customers, DNS changes will take effect in 1-2 hours but it could take up to 24 hours for the changes to propagate to all DNS servers worldwide.A small number of customers, who restrict outbound internet access using the IP address 67.94.24.171, will lose connectivity to weatherlink.com. To reconnect, these customers will need to change their filtering rules. If the filtering rules are not updated to reflect the new IP address (see below for new address), these customers may lose weather data from WeatherLinkIP. Please note that the WeatherLinkIP device communicates with "weatherlink.com," not "www.weatherlink.com." Current weatherlink.com IP address: 67.94.24.171 New weatherlink.com IP address: 209.119.63.221If you have questions, please email our technical support team at support@davisnet.com or call them at 510-732-7814 weekdays from 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM Pacific Time.

is there an easy way to determine if you upload to that ip address?
Seems the Davis site itself is what's "down"......
