Try the command line option (on your Chrome shortcut) suggested here: Super UserHow to set Google Chrome to automatically open up and in...I have Dell Windows tablet (I think the model is the Venue 11 Pro) and when the tablet is turned on I want it to automatically open a specific web page (lets say cnn.com for example) using Google C...

In Chrome, pressing the F11 key alternates between full screen and the usual screen with address bar.

Though a factory reset isn't the same as a simple power cycle, like he did with the air gap, but not then holding the link button in until it beeps. A factory reset will require restoring the device, to restore the links. It's interesting that a simple power cycle resolved the issue, and is certainly a good first thing to try in cases like this.

Looks like the power failure was somehow messy in terms of either Insteon messages, or oddly resetting the microprocessors in the devices. The fact that many devices were affected is quite unusual. Maybe simply turning off the breakers to reinitialize them would have worked just as well.

No real new suggestions, unfortunately. Factory resetting the dongle would very likely delete your other ZWave devices. ZWave is rather cryptic to work with, with few diagnostic tools compared to Insteon.

Adding new ZWave devices is always a bit hit and miss. They always end up working, leaving you wondering what exactly was needed. If you rub your belly twice and then touch your left elbow, it works better... Or maybe not. If these are battery powered, bring them close to a line powered ZWave device for optimal signal strength. Often doing a factory reset on the device helps. You might even try starting with an exclude procedure first.

We love happy endings 🙂

Amazon does have this. https://a.co/d/0cSXRH6

Well ok...could you try opening a command prompt on your computer and then try pinging the ip address that you see in IoX finder? Eg C:\> ping 192.168.0.78.

I have several Insteon leak sensors. I have them shut off the water (Watercop valve) and send me a notification email. I also get notifications for missed heartbeats.

Support for scenes and programs hasn't been added yet.

First things first: can you see the controller in your router's device table, with an IP address? It should be easy to spot, since the UUID is the network card's MAC address. Was your replacement router configured for DHCP, like your old one? Seeing the device listed in IoX finder doesn't mean it's necessarily seeing the controller.

Is the new ZWave device physically distant from your other ones? If so, try moving it closer and try adding it again.

Well I'm only trying to get you to compare how things work now vs before the upgrade. Plugins are extensions that you install to add new functionality for things like Hue l8ghts, Elk alarm systems, etc. Sounds like you haven't installed any yet. So maybe you have an issue that was there before the update. You might need to open a ticket to figure out what's up with your controller.

Well that doesn't look right. Are the plugins themselves working? You could try rebooting your controller and see if that changes anything.
