Bushnell no longer supports this product, which includes discontinuing the servers that provide the data for the device. Apparently they do not believe in decent customer support. Very lousy practice.

I too have the Bushnell fx 5 weather station and have been reading the disgust of how nothing can fix the lost network or non updating data issue. Well I found that unplugging the device and removing the AA batteries let it sit till display is gone. then plug back in and put batteries back in unit and give it up to an hour it receives the data from somewhere cause it started to update again.
