Do you have a question about the WS-2000 and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
Ws 2000 display not connected to weather underground or ambient weather networks. I can’t get any assistance from weather underground. Can you help me?
If the Ambient Weather WS-2000 display is not connecting to Weather Underground or Ambient Weather networks, follow these steps:
1. Check Wi-Fi Connection: Ensure the display is connected to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network. The WS-2000 does not support guest networks.
2. Look for Exclamation Mark (!): If an exclamation mark appears next to the Wi-Fi icon, the display is connected to Wi-Fi but not to the Internet.
3. Confirm Internet Access: Make sure your router’s 2.4 GHz band is connected to the Internet.
4. Reboot Router: If the issue persists, restart your router.
5. Verify Firmware: Check if the Wi-Fi firmware is updated using the awnet app. If the WS-2000 is not listed in the app, this step may not be possible.
6. Factory Reset: If other steps fail, perform a factory reset on the console and re-enter your Wi-Fi credentials after disabling the 5 GHz band.
These steps should help resolve the connection issue.

When plugging in WS-2000 it just beeps with "Starting" flashing on screen.
The Ambient Weather WS-2000 beeps and displays "Starting" when plugged in due to a possible issue with the boot process. This can be caused by a corrupted bootloader, a failed firmware flash, or an inadequate power supply that drops voltage under load. If resetting the device and replacing the internal battery do not fix it, the display unit or internal components may be damaged.
