It's performance has been flawless. The connection to my WiFi has been rock solid. The only time it was not sending data was when my internet provider performed service on our connection. We were without internet a few hours. As soon as the our internet connection was reestablished this unit reconnect to our WiFi and begin transmitting data again.Within a few days of installing this, Weather Underground attached a Gold Star to the account for consistent reporting and consistent data.We've already had high winds here. The unit has set me numerous high wind warnings to me. I have the high wind warning set to 25 mph. So far our highest recorded wind speed has been 32 mph.I'm very pleased with the performance of this unit.
