Thanks John for pointing this out, I wasn't aware there had been an
update. I note one of the changes..
+ added 10 second timeout to observation uploads in case WUnderground
is unreachable

Incidentally, it's not obvious whether this is applicable to WMII
installations. I currently also have WeatherLink v5.6 installed.

However, I will try to apply this new .dll file later when I get home
as I currently have WU disabled to see if it carry's on running through
the day.

Many thanks

Keith et al: Are you using the latest version of the WU add-in? We
don't upload to WU here so I can't comment at first hand but I'm aware
that this issue has been around in other forums for a bit and some
seem to have achieved a fix with the latest WU add-in version. One
recent thread is:

NB AIUI you'll need to be running v5.5 or preferably v5.6 of WL. If
you're using an older WL version this won't be relevant except in the
sense that WU have I think changed the way their servers operate from
what was fully compatible with earlier WL versions.

Basically I think this is largely caused by the fact that WU write
their own add-in to interact with their own servers (ie this is part
of the overall add-in philosophy and it's not anything directly to do
with the Davis programmers). And it sounds as if a previous add-in
version wasn't 100% robust.

Installed new module, took a number of attempts and time re-stamps
before it uploaded, as it kept stalling halfway through. All the numbers
appear to be ok, no corrupt data etc, will just see how it goes, as they
say "time will tell".
