My Vera Plus was bricked by a firmware update i am currently waiting for a replacement. Seen as i foolishly set up my home to rely on this hub i decided to purchase another for use in the interim i plugged in skipped the firmware update and restored the last backup i had from my previous controller. To my supprise this process worked great and i was back up and running in no time.
However… My Z-Wave network has much more latency then it previously did it has never been lightning fast like say my Zigbee network (Philips Hue) but it is border line unusable now.
I noticed in the Z-Wave config panel theres not an obvious option to “heal” the network after some reading it seems this option has been removed. I waited a few days to see if it would sort its self out but it hasn’t in fact i suspect its a little worse. Is this just the nature of wave and backups?
What are my options?
Is there a reliable method of making the zwave network heal itself?
Will one or a mixture of the options in the zwave config screen solve my issues?
Is the only reliable way of achieving this to rebuild? (I really want to avoid this if possible i have a large network.)
Yes, after reading through the forum a little more this does indeed seem to be the case! Id be forgiving as i usually am with tech but they do not seem to be righting there wrongs very efficiently.
Ill try the update neighbourhood and report back thanks for the advice.
I have ran update neighbor nodes a couple of times and left it a day to complete. Unfortunately this doesn’t seem to have done the trick.
Latency is still bad, however, my problem seems to only be turning on from “cold” for instance…
I switch a light on for the first time in a while its will take 5-15 seconds to switch on. If i then switch OFF the light it will go straight off <500ms then switching it ON again 9/10 it will go straight back ON <500ms. This will normally happen continuously ON > OFF > ON > OFF until i either give up or it develops a lag from my abuse which is as expected.
