The instructions on this video and those that are included leaflet that came with my updated 06100M WIFI display are the worst I've ever seen, both are totally WORTHLESS, they don't work!
I'm technically very savvy and was looking forward to upgrading my display to a WIFI enabled from the standard display. The 06100M display finds my 5 way sensor but attempting to connect the display to the WIFI and to the Acurite app has been an exercise in frustration. This is December 2022, this should be straight forward and simple. Also, the Acurite website says that their support is done by chat, no calls, so I guess my frustration will continue. Acurite, how about step by step instructions.

Cat got your tongue?? TELL PEOPLE HOW TO DO THESE THINGS. This way you leave TONS of details out.

There is no Wi-Fi name and pushing the great button didn’t do anything with wifiy

The app is useless. You go to add a device under device profile add the device name country and zip code and it does not let you progress through the set up process past this step

[tinaduke]

Absolutely useless. Very dissapointing instructions!

Your instruction manual is horrible! What did you do hire somebody off the street to write it?

[yellowpatco]

Terrible instructions..display won't synch with app or WU...

The device will not talk to "MyAcurite". I have verified the device is connected through the network by validating its connectivity in the router admin software. It still will not allow me to add the device to MyAcurite or Weather Underground.

A lot more detail would have been helpful, particularly connecting to the internet.

.It does lean forward about 30 degrees as the clothesline it is attached to is rusty and will probably break off before years end

If I had not had this unit for so long before unboxing it I would return it. WIFI setup instructions are useless. Can't tell if it's the 5g network. Just need to shitcan this one and buy another product.

This video tells nothing of how to set up

I discovered it would connect quickly on just battery power, and it stayed connected. When I plugged in the a/c power it would freeze up or would not connect at all. I checked the output of the a/c power adapter and it showed the output at over 8 volts. I used another power adapter that was outputting at 5 volts(it should be 4.5 volts} and so far, for 24 hours it is working and has stayed connected.

What size pipe is that holding the weather station up???

For some reason I cannot stay linked to my Wi-Fi! On the system page it says no Internet! I reset the router and it did recognize it but no communication to Wunderground- there it displays “off line” - 🙄
