 Step back from the stressfulness of this for a second and look at it a 
little differently:

   - you have a weewx raspi on the network
   - you have a WeatherlinkIP thing on the network that talks with your 
   Davis
   - you need to configure weewx to find that WeatherlinkIP thing to talk 
   to it over the network
   - now to do that, do you think you'd put the ip address of the pi in the 
   weewx.conf file ?

No, you wouldn't.  

   - You need to put the ip address of the WeatherlinkIP device in 
   weewx.conf so weewx knows th address of the remote thing it's talking to.
   

So in weewx.conf in the [Vantage] section, you would want "type = ethernet" 
and "host = x.x.x.x" where x.x.x.x is the address on your network for the 
WeatherLinkIP thingy.

We can't tell you what x.x.x.x is unfortunately, as we're not on your home 
network.

If you do that, and restart weewx (which in general you need to do anytime 
you edit weewx.conf), your weewx should talk to your WeatherlinkIP and you 
should see it look like it's doing something.

Also set debug=1 in weewx.conf while you're in there, so we get better 
debugging info in your logs.
