Hi Jason,
thanks for your feedback! We always test the WiFi-USB-sticks we sell to
make sure they work with the device. It is not that easy to install the
missing drivers. If you want to upgrade to a newer version of Max2Play
this might become a problem.
As a solution, I would suggest that you

Thanks for this. The one thing I can't see in the plugin settings now
is any kind of 'key' that shows what the various switches are. Can you

Great! Thank you so much, tcutting.

Just a quick note to add: Unlike other services, Wunderground is _very_

They start you off with 3 raindrops which are exception allowances.
Each time you exceed your limit (calls per day or calls per hour) you're

A considerable improvement! Thanks so much for the work. Just to give
