The router doesn't "find the weather station". the weather station is what connects to it.
Did the weather station get reset and just need to be reinstalled?
If you're using smart connect (combining ssid's) just make sure the phone you're using to setup the weather station is on the 2.4ghz.
you can force your phone to the 2.4ghz by disabling smart connect (use the same ssid for the 2.4ghz that the ssid will have when smart connect is turned on). then connect you phone to the 2.4ghz and try setup. Once its connected, you can turn smart connect back on.
