WiFiLogger:
After changing some servers I and Steve were able to make it run.

What has been done is that we are sending the REALTIME.TXT file via an HTTP request to the server. The request is intercepted by a PHP script, which saves the file on the server in place of the previous one. So, it's like FTP, but safer, and faster. Steve has fresh data on the server every 3 seconds. You can see the wind updates.

In the next iteration of the software for the WiFiLogger, HTTP requests will also be sent as HTTPS, as nowadays the blocking of the open HTTP port by server administrators is starting. We need to keep up with the times.

I hope Steve won't mind if you take a look at his website. https://www.llanelliweather.info
