I just received the OurWeather complete weather station kit. Following the directions, I have all the sensors connected. Here are the issues I am having: 1. The anemometer is not showing any wind speed. 2. The rain gage has shown .5 and .003 while having it inside my home during initial assembly. 3. The OLED board stops displaying randomly. The only way I can restore it is to reset power. 4. After being accessible from a browser for a time, I am no longer able to get data back from the station. The browser (Chrome/Android, Chrome/Linux, Brave/Linux) times out. I am unable to get data directly (times out) and via switchdoc.com/OurWeatherPage.html (shows not connected). I can ping the station. I have to reset power to get it reconnected. The station is running the latest firmware. I have an entire house full of laptops, cellphones, tablets, media players, IoT, etc. that is not experiencing a network issue. The station is sitting 30ft from an AP. Also, I'm a 25+ year I/T (networking + cybersecurity) guy, so I've done my digging to isolate any trouble. I can find none. Any suggestions?

#4 - This sounds like the REST browser problem that will occasionally lock OurWeather. See the forums.
#1, #2. check to see you connected the rain buck and anemometer into the correct plugs. Sounds reversed to me.
#3 - This may be related to #4. If you DON'T use the browser, does it lock?

I've only used a browser to the device itself or the switchdoc.com site. I have a Rasberry Pi but I haven't gotten to that step yet to use it. I'll retrace the cables to check. I'll also reset power and leave not test it via browser to see if it will stay operational (OLED display) for a few hours. Usually, it is unresponsive after about 60-90 minutes.

Chris,
The browser problem is if you use a REST command and send the command from a browser to the device.
Don't need to use a Raspberry Pi for these tests.
Hearing the results of that test will tell us a lot.
