I recently had to replace my microwave as my other one went bad. Ever since getting the new one, the reliability of the Insteon network has really gone downhill. For an example, I can instruct a device to turn on or off and it may or may not do so until after 2 to 5 tries. Sometimes the response is delayed, while other times, it may not work at all. I have already determined it is definitely the microwave that is the culprit. As soon as I unplug the microwave, the problem disappears. Keep in mind, the microwave is not in use when the problem exists, it's just plugged in and in standby. The main difference between my new microwave and the old one is that the new one is an inverter style (Panasonic), unlike my old one (LG). Getting another new microwave is pretty much out of the equation, so I am on a quest to finding a workaround.
Does anybody know if there is some sort of device available that can make the Insteon signal more reliable, all while leaving the microwave plugged in? I already have two access points installed that tether the 2 power phases together as well as several dual-band devices. I'm hoping there might be some kind of filter I could plug in-line with the microwave that can help diminish the interference it is putting out. However, that's where I am at a loss as I don't know if such device exists. Any help on this subject would be greatly appreciated!
