After connecting then lost it,I spent many attempts over the next two days no success. Still don't know what happened but the server wouldn't let me in. Finally I tried the chrome browser on my desktop and got connected. I will revise my review the 5-1 iris is great however 4stars is for complicated web, and no phone really I'm 72 texting sucks.
I was unable to connect the WiFi, as the tech was unfamiliar with Apple products. I was unable to find the Mac equivalents to the dos locations she was directing me to. I am sure it is relatively simple, as I do have several applications connected to my Wifi network. Maybe after the holiday you can have someone contact me who is familiar with Apple and get me set up. (The Tech was very pleasant and really did try to help me) Thanks Gordon

I wrote a rather scathing review on Aug 7th regarding Acurite 5-in-1 Iris Direct-To-Wi-Fi Display and Weather Underground app. Thanks to Amber in tech support my issue was resolved. Thank you!
I would recommend this to a friend!

The dark background is nice BUT the dark rust color of wind speed is hard to see.
I've had an AcuRite installed at my home, and installed one at my Dad's. I've been happy with both, and Dad loves to monitor weather from his breakfast table. So, when my wife and I bought a lake house vacation home, it was only natural to add one there. I can monitor with the app from home.
This replaced an old AcuRite that was failing. The Direct to wifi is a great addition. I no longer have to keep my computer up and running 24 hours a day.

Very Nice Model

I upgraded from an older model Acurite that was 5-6 years old. This model has a better display and easy to setup. Only problem I have can't connect to my Wi-Fi, I have 5GHZ and it needs 2.4GHZ to connect. But other than that, I would recommend this.
