Ok, swaped two single band lamplinc plugins with dual band ones (I am ordering way too much stuff and that helped the remotelincs. I also ran the phase test on the switches and lamplincs and it seems fine.
The last thermo is still not responding and the led is off...I have factory reset it twice, no joy...contacting smarthome...
Thanks for the feed back and sorry to be such a noob...
BTW, swapped all my Control4 stuff out for insteon...not bad...not as quality, but at 1/3 the price and DIY friendly, I'll take it...
