[jim_no.6]

I'm using XBMC-9.11 on Ubuntu. When I set up the install (wired network), the Weather display worked fine.

Now however, the box is connected over (low-signal) wireless. What I'm finding is that the XBMC Weather page never successfully updates. On the same machine, I can visit weather.com and other sites in elinks and firefox, it just takes a while to load. I think that what is happening is that the weather plugin times-out on the connection and never re-tries.

What I'd like is;
- A longer timeout on the weather.com request.
- Weather information to be fetched in the background and cached until the Weather page is viewed

Is there any way to set up either of those?
