Hi @PsychoShaft, this looks like a network issue since both the NTP server and the OpenMeteo API return an issue. It might be that your home router is blocking requests or not providing correct DNS information

Make sure you have a file called WIFI_CONFIG.py with your credentials:

SSID = 'HomeRouter'
PSK = 'P@$$w0rd1234'

Can you try connecting directly in the REPL/Python interpreter, e.g. via Thonny or Mu? Normally when you run connect(), it will show the IP address your router assigns you.

>>> from connect import connect
>>> connect()
>>> import urequests
>>> req = urequests.get('http://api.open-meteo.com/v1/forecast?latitude=52.9&longitude=-1.4&timezone=Europe%2FLondon&hourly=weathercode,temperature_2m&forecast_days=2&current_weather=true')
>>> print(req.json())
