Adding Insteon Devices - Network/Device association changes?

[jukeman]

I am newer to the Insteon and ISY products.  I am replacing all of my X-10 devices over time (my entire home, maybe 50 devices).  My question is:  When I ADD an Insteon Dual Band Device, near an EXISTING Insteon device, does the existing device know automatically that a new Dual Band device is closer to it?  Thus the existing device may have more reliable communication?  Or do I have to do something on my ISY to ask my Insteon devices to "REFRESH" their network/device associations?

Thanks for any feedback or information on this.  I'm really very happy with my insteon implementations, I have a couple of 2-wire switch dimmers that I fight with sometimes, but not too bad.

All dual band devices automatically talk to one another, no user action is required. The more dual band devices you have the more reliable your Insteon network becomes.

The Insteon 2 wire switches are RF only devices, you should have a dual band device near by to receive the signal which is then passed onto the powerline by the dual band device
