Out of curiosity, are you using FTP or URL?

Are you using "webcam.wunderground.com" or 52.36.136.128 for the target address?  The IP address has been working very reliably, for me, for over a month.  The URL was spotty at best.

Thanks for the reply!

webcam.wunderground.com...do I need to just input the address 52.36.136.128  instead...if so, I'll give it a try?

When I test it, where it usually says success, it now says FTP server address error with the 52.36.136.128

Since I've entered the new address 52.36.136.128...my camera says "offline" now. It's been almost 8 hours since I changed it.. Guess I'll have to wait it out !

Can you get a login from a command prompt using the FTP address?

Yes.  Just open a command, DOS, prompt and type FTP 52.36.136.128  You should get a login prompt.  Enter your camera name exactly as it appears in your devices, then enter the password at the password prompt.  This will verify your credentials are correct.
