Hi all. I did a search but didn't see anything, but I suspect this has been discussed before. I have an existing setup that works well. Lots of Insteon switches, plugs, leak detectors, and an ISY 994 ver 4.7.3 I recently added 4 switches to 2 3-way lights. The light with the load is connected to one insteon switch, and the other insteon switch is wired so the black traveler wire feeds power to the responder. I set the switch without the load as the controller of the switch with the load, and that switch as a responder. The load wire on the controller switch is disconnected. The controller does activate the responder, and the responder works from ISY, Home Assistant and Alexa. But, if I turn the lights on from the controller, the responder's status does not change on the ISY, and therefore not in Home Assistant either. Is there a workaround for this? I could have the controller run a program on the ISY to turn on the responder, but for maximum WAF, I want the lights to work even if the network or ISY are down, rare but possible. Thanks.

I'm curious, what are you using for geofencing? I've only recently thought about doing something geofencing, and thought the only options were bluetooth local to the house.

Oh crap. I can't believe that bit me again. That was it, thanks so much!!!

Thanks for the replies. I have done the manage modules, says they're up to date. I have Firmware 4.5.1 In the Modules order page the Network module says: "Now included with ISY Portal Module (requires Firmware/UI version 4.4.6 or above." If I'm not missing doing something, I'll fire an email off to support. Steve

I just purchased the ISY Portal to use with my Amazon Echo. Wow, really fantastic! But, I was going to start playing with integrating my Hunter Douglas Powerview, and I don't see the Network Module. My understanding (and the verbage on the website to order the ISY Portal seems to claim) is that the Network Module is included with the Portal. Do I have to do something special to install it? Thanks, Steve

The Echo look like a very well-done device, but not sure of it's value if you already have an Android or iDevice, as it seems to be mostly "Siri in a box" That said, of it could be a voice controller for ISY, I'd change my tune in a heartbeat. That would be very cool.

A good Canadian source is aartech.ca, not as cheap as the Costco deal, but reasonable shipping from ON.
