Is anyone else having trouble with FSRealWx Lite connecting to the internet. I start FS9, get set to go, and then minimize to start FSRealWx. FSRealWx starts, finds FSUIPC, and then becomes unresponsive when it goes to the internet to download the weather. It locks up at this point and I have to use task manager to kill it. Does anyone know how to get it working? I haven't changed any of my security settings.

Hi Ed,
I´m also having problems. Yesterday and the day before it didn´t connect to any server, update or weather, at all. Today it took several minutes to connect to the weather server, then it downloaded all the Information, but didn´t pass it to FS9. And it locks up after some time. I have no idea how to fix it, but since it has changed since yesterday I´m hoping that someone is working on it and it will function again soon.
I think I remember a similar issue a few years ago, this was apparently somehow resolved and for a long time now it worked flawlessly.

Well I'm glad it's not just me. Hopefully it will be working soon. I guess I'll keep trying whenever I take a flight.

I just tried, unfortunately it is still broken. Same as yesterday, it displays "Connecting to Update Server, please wait" for some time, and then I get the message that it couldn´t connect to the server. It also doesn´t connect to any weather server. |

Try FS Meteo. It's payware, but at least it works.  Bernard |

Up and running again. I do find problems about 1 in 10 occasions I want to use it but it works fine when it wants to.

I have the same issue as yesterday, it takes forever to connect to the weatherserver, when it finally does get the weather it doesn´t send it to the sim.
I actually consider switching to FS Meteo, as Bernard suggested. |

Pilot's FS Global Real Weather is an excellent weather program and gives weather over the oceans, which I think not all do. It costs 30 Euros and I have had it years and have always considered it money well spent. There are glitches, but only very rarely,

I just tried it again. Now it says it's waiting for FS. Oh well I wasn't going flying today anyway.

Based on Ken's advice I installed Pilot's FS Global Real Weather too. Finally I think it's graphically the better choice than FS Meteo. Even if it's slightly more exepensive.
