AS6.5 - cannot download weather

Hi,

 

I've been running AS6.5 for years without problem but cannot download weather today. The message reads "Connecting to HiFi DataNet..." but nothing is being downloaded.

 

Server issues?

Same thing with build 707 of ASE which was specifically supposed to address this with the "tertiary sever" 

From the release notes:

Added additional weather network server for better redundancy, availability and performance

Not sure if it is coincidence but support tix submitted and ASE appears to have connected now...

Thanks Paul. I think this is the first time I've had this problem in years. I'll not bother registering on their new forum. Can't find my 6.5 serial no anyway.

Luke,

 

I only fly at weekends and this is the first time in years I've had this problem. I suppose if the number of us hitting the server is increasing they may need to look at server resources but that's probably best addressed on their official forums.

Hi Folks,

 

My METARS aren't matching real world - AS6.5... I noticed this last night and checked again this AM...

 

AS6.5

KMGJ 231154Z AUTO 25010KT 10SM BKN046 01/M07 A2984 RMK AO2 SLP109 T00111067 10011 20000 50006 TSNO

 

REAL WORLD

Not sure how long this has been going on... Maybe it's just slow on the update - I had thought AS had been pretty current...

 

Regards,
Scott

The METARs for the airports i was flying in Europe matched perfectly. LPFR/LPPR.

 

When it's not working, we can always call it... Inactive Sky :D

 

Sorry couldn't resist :D :D :D
