New Ambient WiFi Firmware: v4.3.1
« on: September 13, 2021, 05:44:51 PM »
Yet another WiFi firmware from Ambient is now available.

v4.3.1 changelog:
  • Optimize domain name resolution.
  • Optimize the uploading stability of custom servers.
  • Fix the exception caused by user customization upload.

This firmware supposedly fixes some exceptions in customized uploads from v4.3.0.
Thank you to olicat for pointing this out.

Is this only for the console that comes with the WS-5000?  I have 4 display consoles (3 Ecowitt and the one Ambient).  The Ambient one is the only one I use to upload to WU and Ambient.  The Ecowitt ones are connected to wifi but I do not share any data from them.

Edit:

The Ambient console shows up as AMBWeather, and my three other displays show up as EasyWeather devices and also updated using the same app.  Nice easy update for sure.  Glad I didn't need to touch the consoles to try and update them using the arrow keys/enter buttons.

Most other Fine Offset clones besides Ambient use the same or extremely similar version of the WiFi firmware. Ambient has a customized one, which is how you upload to AmbientWeather.net instead of Ecowitt.net.
