Hello, all. I'd been using (albeit Russian) a Win7 gadget
"WeatherCenter" for several years without a hitch until about a month or so ago. I'd been getting weather updates from "theweathernetwork.com" but the gadget can also be configured to connect to weather.com, accuweather.com, weatherunderground.com or weatherbug.com. The gadget is now unable to establish connection with any of these sites and it doesn't appear to be a firewall issue on my end. Does anyone know how to get this gadget working again or know of an alternate Win7 desktop gadget/widget that works? Thanks for your time and comment. -- J. B. Wood e-mail: |

Just curious, did you check the Win 7,8,10 Gadget Site? http://win7gadgets.com/weather/ I've been using the Main Weather one for a few years and it's still working. -- Zo "Dah Wong Path." -- A sign for a park path in Hong Kong. |

Thanks for your reply and those from others to my OP. I did try installing several (other than "WeatherCenter") of the Wx gadgets at that URL you provided but they failed to connect to whatever site was being used to provide the Wx data. Now, for some unknown reason my favorite "Russian" Wx gadget that I'd been using for several years, "WeatherCenter", is getting data again (currently from "The Weather Network") as of this moning, 1/1/19. For how long, who knows? -- J. B. Wood e-mail: |
