  If your ACCUR8 Weather Station isn't reporting data to Wunderground.com or Weathercloud.net, verify that your password or key is correct, matching the one you registered on Wunderground.com (it cannot begin with a non-alphanumeric character). Also, confirm your station ID is correct. Ensure the date, time, and time zone are correctly set on the console to report real-time data. Finally, check your router firewall settings, as the console sends data via Port 80.

How to fix ACCUR8 DWS7100 Weather Station Wi-Fi not displaying on console?
- S
  Stacey HolmesSep 5, 2025
  If the Wi-Fi icon is not displayed on the console, consider the following: 1. Check your router for problems. 2. If wireless connectivity is successful, the Wi-Fi icon will be displayed in the time field. 3. Make sure your modem Wi-Fi settings are correct (network name and password). 4. Ensure the console is plugged into AC power, as it will not connect to Wi-Fi when powered by batteries only. 5. The console only supports and connects to 2.4 GHz routers. If you own a 5 GHz router, and it is a dual band router, you will need to disable the 5 GHz band and enable the 2.4 GHz band. 6. The console does not support guest networks.

  Tiffany AriasSep 12, 2025
  If your ACCUR8 Weather Station console isn't displaying Wi-Fi, first ensure the Wi-Fi icon is visible, indicating successful wireless connectivity. Verify that your modem's Wi-Fi settings (network name and password) are correct. The console must be plugged into AC power for Wi-Fi to function; it won't connect on battery power alone. Note that the console only supports 2.4 GHz routers; disable the 5 GHz band on dual-band routers. Guest networks are not supported.
