Well, Had some great luck with Alexa, ISY and Hub. I simply added the devices I wanted to control with Alexa to the Insteon Hub and voila, I can now use Alexa with my system again, with no costs for portal or cumbersome ISY/Alexa interface for remote use. The ISY still has all the devices and scenes loaded in it and I made some groups on Alexa for verbal commands that I do not necessarily need a complex scene for. It took me less than 30 minutes to reprogram the new Insteon Hub that I got for free from Smarthome under warranty. Now, no costs to run Alexa and remote access... YEA!
