Hi aznetcowboy,
1.If you have not done it yet, it is recommended to perform a factory reset after a firmware update. The link below may help out.

Thanks for the idea of doing the ping. I never gave that the first thought.That helped me narrow down my problem and my Weatherlink unit is communicating. I also changed my dhcp setting from 192.168.1.1-254 to 192.168.0.100-199 which where my units were set up before. I suspect that was a major part of the problem, but the Pinging sure helped.
Thanks again!
