WH2600 station with WeatherUnderground - Offline
« on: August 23, 2021, 10:46:08 AM »
Hi,

I'm kindly new in this field. I bought a WH2600 Weather station , I setup it correctly and put my ID and KEY ID from the WeatherUnderground website after adding my device.

I still not have any data uploaded to the website and I am wondering what I did wrong.

This is the actual setup of IP and Authentication in attachment. I tried to do a POST on rtupdate.wunderground.com but I'v got a 404.

Does anyone have a hint of what's wrong ?

Thank you [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]   [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

are you sure your device ID is not 10 characters?
verify deviceID and password here: https://www.wunderground.com/member/devices

It's definitely 8, but go ahead and remove that pic and change your key on the site and in your weather logger.  The other issue, which I do not know about is the PHP setting.


rtupdate.wunderground.com is definitely up.  replies back to me at work as:

Did you try to make a GET or POST on this website ? It's returning a 404. Ping is working also on my end

that's just the root domain.  It actually has a more to the URL I can only assume the firmware places at the end.

I pulled the firmware and looked.  I was right:

see:  https://dbxit.com/uploading-to-weatherunderground-using-http  he/she has some more parameters, you can test your ID/Password and such to see if it's WUNDERGROUND or firmware device issue.

Hello,

This is the test I did based on your link with Postman :
 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

I'v got a bad request return, I am not sure what was wrong.

In the same time I attached a picture of the RF relay connected to the Internet , you will notice that the Server status is not blue :

When I did a Wireshark capture on my network , filtering IP management and the server IP I have stricly nothing as activity network :

This the result on a telnet connection on the management IP box , ping is successfull , and status seems to be OK :

EDIT : I just found the bin to make an upgrade of the IP observer module, I will let you know.

I did a firmware upgrade to 4.5.8 , the setup changed a little bit but when I tried to set the Upload interval update to 1 min for example, I save the config but it return to no update once I refresh the page like this :

I also lost the telnet connection since I upgraded the device.

If you have the Misol version of the WH2600 then I recommend not using Ambient firmware and that you stick to FO/Ecowitt firmware. Just make sure it's the latest. Do a factory reset after firmware flashing.

Hello thank you for your reply, do you have a link for the FO/Ecowitt firmware that will be compatible with the WH2600 ? I am on the Ecowitt website but I am not sure which one I have to download.

Thank you

The WH2600 is an older generation part which is probably why Ecowitt does not have it on their site. I would end an email to Ecowitt and ask them for a download link to the latest firmware for the WH2600.

This station looks identical to the WS-1400IP from ambient weather but a 433Mhz version. If you have a backup copy of the misol firmware, I would test the latest 4.6.1 from ambient weather and see if the sensors are read at 433Mhz.  Of course, FO/ecowitt would be best, but they are going to take a while to answer you.

Another option is the Aercus 433Mhz Instruments version: https://www.aercusinstruments.com/content/downloads/WH2600_V2.2.8_now.bin

Any firmware can be installed, be it from Ambient or from FO/Ecowitt, and it won't be a problem with the given frequency of the hardware. The frequency will not change and the firmware will run. The frequency is determined by hardware, probably some SMD frequency chip. But running the Ambient firmware will actually be detrimental to getting the best experience for non-Ambient hardware. You will lose the ability to use the Custom server upload, and the Ambientweather.net upload will be present but not work because the MAC address will not be registered with that service network. If you had the Ambient version (ObserverIP) of the hardware then the same applies as to not getting the best experience if you install the FO/Ecowitt firmware. You would then lose the ability to upload to Ambientweather.net.

Thanks galfert for the info!  I think he is just trying to get WU working at the moment.  I feel for him as it's probably another WU hidden server issue that may or may not magically fix itself.

I think but I'm not certain that WU is removing support for some old upload protocol methods. This is affecting older weather stations. The best thing to try first is the latest firmware for your weather station. If that still does not work then I would contact the manufacture and request that the put out a newer firmware to address the WU upload requirements. Or get newer hardware/software for your station.

Hello Forum,
I have owned this station for a few years and just prior to the date of this post it was in good working order. Then following a change of house I turned it off. Today, I finally tried to turn it back on and it won't connect to the server anymore. Here I read that I should update the firmware, but none of those proposed here seems to have given positive results, or at least it hasn't been specified. Does anyone have any news on this?
Thank you all!

Solved!
I downloaded a firmware update from the manufacturer's website, which I am attaching, and installed it with IPTools. Works!
