Complete Failure / Hub Malfunction?

It would be nice to see your Zwave Settings page here.

You said you tried everything, but did you try any of the following?

  • After rebooting, immediately attempt to remove one of the ghosts. Don't do more than one and reboot again.
  • Did you find (or think you found) the device that caused the ghost? Did you de-power that? It is usually the next 1-2 items below the ghost device. Line powered devices might need to have the circuit breaker tripped on that device.
  • Did you try wrapping the hub in foil, and see if that attenuated the Zwave signal enough to do a ghost removal? Long shot, but I heard it works sometimes.

It is not generally recommended or necessary to do a full Zwave repair. IF you have to do a repair, do individual nodes.

Unplugged, or unpaired from hub? Simply unplugging might actually cause issues if things are routing through that device.

Did you do the Zwave radio firmware update when you did the last hub update?
