Deciding if upgrading to new Polysi is worth it.

You probaly updated the firmware on the TP-Link devices.   That makes them incompatible with 3rd party products.   Complain to Tp-link.

 

No that's not it. It's happened before over a year ago but there was no update for 2.2.11 back then, in fact, I updated it to 2.2.9-5 back then and it updated on its own just fine. It was just during this TP-Link Failure that it showed a new update. All it takes is a Polyglot Reboot to fix the TP-Link issue. But that does explain why some just recently purchased TP-Link Smart Outlets are not showing up after looking. Otherwise, the ISY didn't control those new items but just now realized they are not appearing even if you tell it to Add All Nodes. Then looking in Polyglot they are not even in the Kasa Node Server either.

@TRI0N,

Given that fact that you expect a free version of a library that we do not maintain, running on a hardware that we do not maintain, be supported in perpetuity. And given that you expect node server developers to support node servers for that platform. And given that you expect all of us to bow our head to your majestical presence and beg to convince you it's worth migrating to Polisy/eisy even though, you already concluded that our support sucks. Well, your majesty, may I humbly suggest that you take a look at Home Assistant? It offers you everything you need, in one package, and everything is free, and it even runs on RPi and supported. 

So, no, it's really not worth it. 

With kind regards,
Michel

aartech.ca has this alternative on sale right now for only $1149 CAD. Sale ends tomorrow and it goes back up to $1378.62 CAD. It should perform as well as a polisy pro. You may need to add some I/O to it to make it work with your HA system.
