Sainlogic

Ran into the same issues as previous users. Hours of wasted time, until I followed the instructions in previous review. But the time was already wasting by the time I found the review.

I am taking the liberty to repost these excellent instructions posted here about a year ago at the date of this writing, January 27, 2005, by user "Lovelikeamaze" who is in my grateful estimation an absolute gem of a human being. My intent is to help them show up when sort by recent. I followed these instructions and it worked like a charm. The only caveat is in step 11 your browser may insist on using HTTPS, and my experience I was only able to reach 192.168.5.1 using plain HTTP. Those two use different ports to listen for incoming requests and the hardware on the display panel for the station may only be using the port associated with default Http:// Without further introduction I give you Lovelikeamaze kind and thoughtful advice: I KNOW HOW TO CONNECT TO THE WIFI ***** 1y ago• Lovelikeamaze 1. Make sure your console is plugged in and the wifi symbol is blinking 2. Make a wunderground account online. 3. After making an account go to your profile and push 'my devices' 4. Push add new device 5. When it wants you to select a device hardware select 'other' and then push next 6. Enter your address and then push next 7. Enter a name for your weather station, but don't change the elevation or hardware. Then answer the ones about where you put your Weather Station (height above ground and what surface it is on). Then push 'I accept' and then move on to the next page. 1. On this page it will show you your Station ID and Station Key, YOU WILL NEED TO REMEMBER THIS. 2. Now make sure you are on a laptop. On that laptop connect to your console's wifi. (it should be called sainlogic with numbers after it) 3. Open up an ICONGITO browser on the laptop. And search http://192.168.5.1. (MHW 1/27/25 note to not use https just plain http) 11) That will bring you to your FINAL STEP. Now you should fill out information about your wifi at your house (network's name and password). And then, you need to enter the ID and KEY from from before. ***YOU DO NOT HAVE TO FILL OUT THE LAST THING ON THERE ABOUT THE OTHER WEBSITE WEATHERCLOUD 12) Push save and it should all connect. And on your console you should see the correct time and date. Now instead of using the app Sainlogic to track the your data. You need to use wundeground. Hope that helps

Gets the job done for daily data. To see more data just go to Wunderground.com

The device can only be used as a local display, it is not capable of Wi- Fi connection either on local network or Weather Underground, dont bother trying……….wish I read the reviews before buying, or spending countless hours attempting to connect

Avoid ! Could not connect wi fi with application Does not work Connect to WiFi directly Device IP address available on WEB Will see about the station quality.

Supposedly this app works with the smart bird feeder. I could not find it.

It’s nice being able to pull the data off of my weather station, but it really needs the option to automatically refresh the current station instead of having to manually refresh all the time.

Do not, under any circumstances, try to set up your Sainlogic device for Wunderground wifi usage using this app. It will never connect. Instead, do the following. 1. Set up an account on Wunderground as the instruction manual says and add a new device once your account is created. Be sure to write down the station ID and station key that is generated by Wunderground for your device. 2. Open up your browser and key in 192.168.5.1 and hit enter. This will pull up your Sainlogic device’s programming window. 3. Select your wifi network and key in the password for it if you have one. 4. Key in the aforementioned station ID and station key you got from Wunderground and hit “Save.” 5. Your station should now be connected. Check your Wunderground account to make sure it shows your station as being online and transmitting data. I’m deducting two stars from this review because the app is useless in setting up the connection above. But it works in displaying all data from the station AFTER you’ve set it all up.

The app isn’t terrible. My main problem with it is when you open it, you have to wait like 30-60 seconds for the data to refresh/update. It’s quicker to just kill the app, reload it, then it pulls in the newest data immediately. PLEASE add a REFRESH button that pulls the latest data, or allow the screen to be pulled down to refresh the data (like almost all other apps on earth)

I am not okay with putting in all of my credit card info just to set up an account on this app. What other choices do I have? This Stellar page you sign in on is a scam to charge your credit card. What other app can I use ?
