Hi everyone, I just moved into a house that has an existing Insteon setup. It has the 2245-222, a few Insteon led bulbs, an extender and a bunch of 2276s/d switches. I've also found an Insteon load controller out by the pool equipment. I've been researching quite a bit, but still have questions. I connected everything to Alexa, but it's not always perfect.
Questions:
1. Alexa does not always turn on or off the lights. Sometimes Alexa says a light is not responding, other times it says ok, but nothing happens.
If I install a few dual mesh 2477 switches around the house will this improve reliability with Alexa?
2. If a 2477 switch only receives a wireless command, will it repeat that command through the powerline?
3. Why doesn't the load controller show up on my hub?
4. I have a 2476d switch that works with the Insteon app and it works manually, but Alexa can't find it. I also tried to add it to a scene, but it fails.
5. Sometimes I come home and a light or two is on. I went through EVERY schedule tab I could find in the hub, there are no schedules set up. Could the solar system be triggering lights? It does seem to happen around midday.
Thanks
