6 button KPL backlighting challenge
The Insteon firmware doesn't have an option to set the led brightness on the individual KPL buttons. @maxnorth When you set the backlight level be sure to click on the "Blacklight" button after setting your levels. Make sure you Keypad button option is set to "toggle. If you set the levels to 1/0 the KPL leds should turn off when the button is off

Must power cycle EISY after every network interruption.
The eisy should automatically connect to the router after the router reboots. Are you using a reserved address for the eisy, it's possible that you have an address conflict in the router. Why are you rebooting your router so often?

Help with Aeotec Trisensor Setup
Yes, that's what I was referring to. Have you tried excluding and then including the sensor. When including it keep it in close proximity to your controller. What controller, Zwave dongle and firmware are you running?

I/O Devices for Insteon
If you have, or want to add, zwave then take a look at these: ZOOZ ZEN17 UNIVERSAL RELAY – ZOOZ (getzooz.com) Zooz ZEN16 MultiRelay – ZOOZ (getzooz.com)

Must power cycle EISY after every network interruption.
Check your ethernet cables and connections between the router and the eisy. If they're OK then you should probably open a support ticket.

Yours is an isolated case. Have you tried rebooting your router. Are you usinng a reserved address for ther eisy in your router?

motion detector not communicating with new eisy
During your previous install some of the links may not have been written. Glad you're back in business.

motion detector not communicating with new eisy
One last thing to try, put the MS into the linking mode then from the tools menu run a Device link table diagnostic. After the links poipulate click on compare to see if you have any mismatched links
-
motion detector not communicating with new eisy
All dual band devices act as repeaters. When you installed the MS II did you link it using the "Sensors" "Motion Sensor II" option in the linking menu What PLM are you using? The insteon signal emits from the PLM not the EISY. Are both sides of your power line bridged, you can verify that using the 4 tap test (see attached) 4 Tap test.pdf

motion detector not communicating with new eisy
Being that the MS is working when close to the controller, the problem is not with the MS. You need a dual band plug-in device closer to the MS to act as a repeater. between the MS and the EISY.

Several scenes corrupted after migration to eisy
@twired You didn't previously mention that you swapped out you PLM. Did you follow the replace modem instructions (see attached). This was written for the ISY994 but also applies to the newer controllers. You propably don't have to delete your devices, you can probably just do a replace PLM procedure. Replace Modem.pdf

Try doing a factory reset on the MS, then a restore device. Keep the MS fairly close to the Eisy during the restore

Several scenes corrupted after migration to eisy
You can run a Scene Diagnostic (Tools | Diagnostic | Scene test) This may pinpoint any issues with the scene. Post a screenshot of the results. It's also possible that there was a glitch durning migration which corrupted the link tables. Another option is to run a link table diagnostic on a device that is not supposed to be triggered by the scene (Tools | Diagnostic | Show device link Table) After the table populates, click on Compare which will show if there are any mismatched links between the Eisy and the Device.

motion detector not communicating with new eisy
What EISY firmware version are you running Are you using the MS1 or MS II Have you tried replacing the battery. If you move the MS closer to the EISY does it then correctly show the status?
-
Several scenes corrupted after migration to eisy
It sounds like some of the link tables in your devices may have been corrupted prior to the migration Do a restrore device for the devices in the scenes(s) your're having a problem with. What was your ISY994 firmware version? Was your firmware backup current prior to the migration? Did you uddate the EISY firmware prior to migration?

How to enable both LAN and wifi on EISY
With the EISY it's either LAN or onboard WiFi, it doesn't support both protocols at the same time.

Serial PLM vs. USB PLM
@Brian H Does the PLM's firmware reside on the main board or the daughter board? In theory, could you swap a serial daughter board with a USB daughter board?
-
Serial PLM vs. USB PLM
For the eisy and polisy, the serial PLM requires a serial to USB convertor. The USB PLM is more versatile as you use a stock USB cable There shouldn't be any noticeable difference in performance between the two

Motion Sensor and Variable setting
You can program the sensor to send only an ON command by checking the "on command only" box under the MS options. You'll first need to put the MS into the linking mode
