Real Weather download

Hi guys,

Lately I´ve been experiencing some problems with the real weather feature of FS2004.  Everytime I try to download it, appears an error message refering to the Internet connection. It is the first time that happens to me for such a long period of time, because the previous times this error lasted for about one minute or so... because a sudden disconnection. This also doesn´t happen to me when flying online in Ivao; the weather runs correctly. Does anyone know what can be the reason? Is it due to a problem in my system? How could I fix it? Is it possible that the reason is the server where it catches the weather info is no longer available?

Thanks in advice. ;)

Same here Jose - in another Forum someone said it's because of a massive power cut in Seattle which has affected Microsoft's servers due to severe storms but I'm not completely convinced that Microsoft aren't pulling the plug on FS9 weather to get us to buy FSX... ;)

EHM-1798 Conrad:
I would advise you to fly online, thus getting real whether all the time. I would highly reccomend IVAO - being the most popular network for Europe.

EHM-1633 José:
Umm.. thanks for your reply.
They shouldn´t give a cold shoulder to the FS9 users as we still are the majority: I´ve heard of people who aren´t going to buy FSX as they aren´t going to buy a PC , so they are waiting for the next one. I´m not buying it at the moment, and so if Microsoft wants to keep its prestige they should fix ti instead of pressing users. :{

PS: Bythe way, does anybody know if this feature works in FSX? :%

EHM-1633 José:
@ Conrad: Yup you are right! ;) Although sometimes I can´t find enough time to prepare and do an online flight, that´s why I use the real weather of FS2004 :s
