@aaronpk what board/dongle are you using for ZWave?
@jeff_mcfadden The GoControl HUSBZB-1. I think I saw it mentioned on the Home Assistant forums.
@aaronpk does your Z-Wave software allow you to reorganize the network? I found that to be essential to fixing some connectivity issues I had. I’m using the Razberry / ZWay software. Post organization the mesh-ness was much more reliable for me.
@jeff_mcfadden There's a "heal network" button or something, but tbh I don't have enough z-wave devices to try it. Also my apartment is like 600 sq ft so pretty much everything is in direct line of sight to the receiver 😂
@aaronpk gotcha! In my case I’ve been impressed with the performance of the ZWave devices but you’ve definitely tried more things than I have!
@jeff_mcfadden I'm also hesitant to go all z-wave because the devices tend to be a lot more expensive! If any of my other stuff starts failing in weird ways I'll give it a shot tho, maybe the cost is actually worth something.
@aaronpk makes sense. I’ve got a larger residence, and I wanted in-wall switches so my wife & kids could keep using their muscle memory, which left us with zwave and weird stuff like Leviton as the options.
@jeff_mcfadden I'm glad that's working! I'm also testing this stuff out so that when I end up in a bigger place I know what to get, and I definitely want every light switch to be connected to the system!
