Access: Looking Good! review by John Z on 1/4/2018

My beta test observations:

Installation was straightforward, simple. The "Replace" function in My AcuRite made decomissioning the old hub and launching the Access install easy. Access found all my sensors without a hitch, in situ, no close pairing needed.

Access connected to my network at 100M full duplex, and played nice there with all my gear.

The battery backup and data recovery feature, which is new on Access, really proved its worth to me. In my rural location, power or internet go down just too often. Access detects those conditions, and will patch up to 12 hours of data to My AcuRite when the condition clears.

AcuRite is positioning Access as well prepared to handle new sensors and features in the future. To a couple of us beta testers, that was an invitation to get under the hood and see what is inside. I do not advise doing that, as it will void your warranty and may result in breakage. What we found though is important. Access has been given ample compute and storage resources to enable a good long service life. The processor is much more powerful than on the old hub. The amount of program and data memory has been greatly increased. The Ethernet implementation looks to be rock solid. The overall layout and design is clean and orderly. The new vertical spiral antenna is a big improvement over the hub antenna. All good!

Adding new function also means that Over-the-Air firmware upgrades will be necessary. During beta test, several such transfers occurred and they all completed flawlessly. It appears that Access has been designed to handle OTA upgrades gracefully and reliably.

My net: This is a great new product! Congrats to the design team!
