WiFi Logger 2 Stopped working- no comms- just blinks green
« on: October 12, 2023, 05:58:44 AM »
New Wifi Logger2 stopped working, not reachable via wifi, not sending data. The green Led flashes once every second. It's been on-line with no issues for a little over a month then nothing.

I tried.
Reset (white button} --nothing
complete console reboot---nothing

what does the blinking green LED indicate? And does pressing the red one for 10 sec factory reset it or does it retain the data reporting upload settings?

This video shows how to factory reset.

My Green LED is on solid while connected.

If it is flashing it is in some other state.

Have you tried Smart Config? I like how it works.

So I tried the red config button- logged into the wifi logger SSID and checked, everything was correct. I reset it and still would not connect to my network. So I rebooted my router and about 10 minutes later the LED was steady green and uploading to the sites again. I have about 8 other wifi devices that are always on this same network, and none of them were having issues, only the WiFi Logger.
I don't understand why, in the middle of the night, after being on-line for weeks, it just decides to just drop off the LAN.

It is mysterious to me also. I had that happening a few times. After upgrade to 2.42 FW the issue seems to have stopped. Although, a click of white reset brought mine back to life when it did happen.

This happened on version 2.42

the only change I made yesterday, when i got it working again, was to set it back to DHCP instead of static. Maybe it will help... IDK

I think mine is much better on Static IP. The Mesh seems to like reboot cycles and I changed a bunch of things to Static and they seem to reconnect more consistently.

If all else fails, contact the developer, Wojtek, support@wifilogger.net. He lives in Poland and is very responsive.

What it solved? Do you still need any help?
