There is a problem with the ObserverIP module where it will stop reporting and the lights will go off and not be available on the network. The preliminary word back from Ambient Weather is that it's an issue with the "Scraping" and they are aware of the problem. However I have not gotten information regarding the root cause of the problem or an avoidance to the problem. The solution as it stands currently is to monitor and reset the device. (Unplug power... wait... plug back in power)
This "solution" leads me to believe it's a system level issue of the device not handling the network connections in an efficient manner of the typical Open/Close connections and too many connections in a TIMEWAIT state end up consuming memory and crashing the little box. I'm going to look into this further and discuss with Ambient Weather.
I will update as I learn more.
