I have an Ambient weather station WS-2902C connected to an Asus RT-68U. Whenever I have a situation where the router loses its internet connection, the Ambient device will not automatically reconnect to the internet. The only way I've found to get the Ambient station connected to the internet again is to reboot the router. I've tried restarting services on the router, e.g., restart wifi, dhcp, etc, but nothing seems to work. Ambient support is useless. I'm using data from the Ambient device in an application which controls dehumidifiers, so it's a real problem when it loses connection.
A typical situation where this occurs is when I have a power outage. When that happens, the router comes up before the internet gateway, so it comes up without internet until the gateway catches up. I think that when the Ambient connects to the router without internet that's when it hangs up.
I'm trying to understand what's actually happening that's causing the problem. If I can figure out the issue, I can probably write a script on the router to fix it. Any ideas to try?
