Hoping someone smarter than I can help...
Like others, I was fried when after 3 months told by Acurite that they were discontinuing smartHub and I could pay another $129 for its replacement...I read about Weewx and Rasberry Pi.
Finally bought the Pi and got started. Quickly underestimated the networking knowledge I would need.
Basically, I need help connecting Weewx to the data coming from the smartHub. I think it's mostly a DNS networking and interceptor driver config challenge.
Here's my current state, let me know if any other info (e.g. weewx config) is needed.
