Smartbedded UG has a feature implemented which allows remote login to a Meteobridge when provided the MAC. This is very usefull for bug fixing, but you can switch this feature off by clearing the mark of corresponding checkbox.
Localization

Some weather networks require coordinates of your weather station. Please enter location by latitude and longitude as decimals. The orange "i" icons do lead you to a web site, where you can easily find out coordinates of any location in the world.
Network Status
This section shows IP or WLAN IP used by Meteobridge regarding if meteobridge is working in a cabled or wireless environment. It also displays the system's MAC. You also find network parameters like gateway, netmask and DNS meteobridge is using at the moment. If you have made changes to the network setup, this is not reflected here until Meteobridge is rebooted. WAN IP does report IP your router uses to connect to the Internet. When there is no Internet connection an error message will displayed instead.
Messages
Messaging section shows system notifications, mainly around status of data logging functions of Meteobridge. When Meteobridge does not work as expected, a look into this log might give hints what goes wrong.
Submit Changes
When you press "Save and Apply" new pasword and timezone settings are stored. Reboot button does not store data, but will initiate a reboot of your Meteobridge device.
