One more question Michel, I don't have a recent backup of my system. If I make a backup now will I be re-introducing some of the same corrupt files back into the system after I replace the sd card and restore? Hopefully I don't have to rebuild everything from scratch.

Thank you Michel, I'll try that this weekend.

I've been troubleshooting a few issues and I noticed that when I open my error log it only has data from 6/10/19 till 12/15/19. I tried to clear the log, but every time I re-open it the same dates are there. If I open the event viewer when I clear the log I get the following 2 errors. [FileOpen ] Open failed for [/LOG/ERRORA.LOG] (a) [FileOpen ] Open failed for [/CONF/VARINIT.1] (w) Is my file system corrupt? Where do I start?

Nevermind. I was out of available links. Upgraded to Pro and problem solved. I hate beating your head against the wall for hours only to find the answer was so simple and an easy fix.

Hey guys, I'm having some linking trouble on a few devices. I've got a new keypad linc 2334-632 that I am able to link, but I only get the main on/off button and none of the scene buttons. I've got a new fanlinc 2475F that will not link at all. I get "cannot add insteon device" I'm on 5.0.14 It's been awhile since I've added any new devices so I'm probably doing something stupid. Any ideas?

I've done something similar to MWareman. The doorbell push button is connected directly to an IOlinc, there is no actual doorbell. I have a RPi with Kodi that plays an MP3 file via a network resource for notification (it currently says "Ding dong. Somebody is at the front door"). I also have a windows PC running Blue Iris that will text me a picture of the front door via another network resource on the ISY. The only problem I'm having is that when i trigger the program manually on the ISY I get the notification on my phone via pushover with the text picture from Blue Iris, but when somebody actually rings the doorbell I don't get the photo. I'm still trying to figure that one out........

Hmm, I've never noticed mine being hot at all. I'll have to check it when I get home tonight. I've heard great things about the Asus routers and may upgrade in the future mainly because I don't like the DD-WRT interface. It looks like asuswrt merlin is much more user friendly.

Yeah I thought about that, but it would probably be too difficult to bridge the moca/ethernet on the router and anyway I have 2 spare moca/ethernet adapters that require zero configuration. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I finally got things working, it's been online for 3 days straight now without a hiccup. Since I am on FIOS I have an ONT (optical network terminal) on the outside of the house with a coax MOCA connection to the router which locked me into using the FIOS MOCA router. I called Frontier and had them disable the MOCA port on the ONT and turn on the Ethernet port. I then ran a new cat5 line inside and hooked up my Netgear nighthawk AC1900 router. Tossed the FIOS MOCA router into the trash and problem solved. I've been wanting to migrate to an all ethernet network anyway so it was a win/win.

Yeah I have wireless turned off on the 1st router and only use the wifi through the 2nd router. The 2nd router just acts as a switch and all DHCP is handled by the 1st router so I don't have any clashes to deal with, they get along well. Maybe as a test I'll switch wifi back to the 1st router and remove the 2nd router all together just to see if there is something going on that might be affecting the tag manager. I doubt it since I have close to 100 other devices that work perfectly, but it doesn't hurt to try at this point.

No, I gave up trying to get it to communicate through the Actiontec router. The email support I was receiving from CAO just stopped so I guess they gave up? My new plan is to configure the Actiontec to bridge mode so that my Netgear router becomes my primary behind the bridge. I tried that once and failed, but I know it can be done. My current config Verizon ONT-------------->Actiontec router w/ethernet switch and DHCP server-------------- >Netgear router in wireless access point mode New config Verizon ONT-------------->Actiontec router in bridge mode------------------------------------------>Netgear router w/ethernet/wifi and DHCP server The Actiontec passes all traffic through and the ISP assigned IP address becomes the WAN address of the Netgear router.

The second tag manager that I brought to work has been running strong for close to a week so I know it has to be something in the Actiontec router configuration.

There are multiple options on the router for logs but I have not been able to capture any traffic from the tag manager yet for some reason.

The screenshot shows maximum security as checked, but I only use medium security so there should be no blocking of outgoing ports. Yes the Actiontec WAN port (coax MOCA) is connected directly to the Verizon ONT (Outside network terminal) I keep returning to this from the manufacturers web page. It still doesn't make sense that the router is blocking outgoing ports 80 and 6667. "You have to open out-going port for TCP 80 and 6667 (IRC) connection. Some firewall will initially allow IRC connection but cuts it after a while."

Also, if there was any type of outbound blocking going on I would expect the tag manager to never function. As it stands now, sometimes it works for 15 minutes, sometimes it works for 24 hours. So it is connecting and functioning properly, but it randomly disconnects.
