HIFI DataNet never retrieves weather

[Guest hongaku]

Hey everybody,I've been using AS6.5 for a year and as of Sunday, October 15, I have been unable to download weather updates from the HIFI DataNet. The display continously displays "connecting to HIFI DataNet" and eventually locks up. Anyone else having this issue? I've turned off the firewall, downloaded and installed the latest build (although it still reads Build 522). Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.Eric

Hi Eric,No other reports of this at my end and the servers are up and running fine. Try a uninstall reinstall cycle of AS and also make sure that Internet Explorer is not set to work Offline. This is under the File menu item.Please let us know.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/

Jim,That fixed it. I had Internet Explorer disconnected (Firefox for me). Important lesson learned- don't mess with windows components, other apps might need them. Thanks for the help!Eric
