That looks to be the expected behaviour. When I try to access the IP address of the pi in my browser 192.x.x.x:8888 I am not seeing the Searx interface, so something isn't working quite right and I am not sure what as it does seem that all the other commands work. Hoping someone might try this out ...

You need to post pictures showing the wiring at both ends no just pi end, and you need to tell use which version of the sensor you are using , I.E. sensor on pcb with resistor or just sensor with external resistor on breadboard. I think this may be the instructions knute was suggesting you try. htt...

The simplest way is to use the dht11 overlay. You just read the data out of a file. It works fine.

Thanks for the reply knute,

Do you have some instructions you could link me to for using the dht11 overlay?

Thank you

I have a few of these sensors and other types of sensors (door contacts, motion detector, photoresistors) around the house. They are controlled by a nodemcu module (a little board like arduino). The nodemcu connects to my wifi, collects temperature at regular intervals and sends it wirelessly by ca...

I suggest the first thing you do is post a picture showing the sensor and the WiFi g to the pi so we can see how you have it wired. Secondly is your sensor mounted on a PCB with a resistor or are you using an unmounted version ? Thanks for the reply @pcmanbob, hope you can still help me. Here is a ...

Thanks @pcmanbob

Once I have forwarded the port (I know the port number and how to forward so I have set this up on the router) how do I verify that I can access it externally (from outside my local network)?

Thank you for your help with this. It is very much appreciated
