Well like I said i figured it would be painful. I get it and it sounds like you are in a tough spot with home usage. That said i think the fact you have a C8 gives you a good opportunity to split the Lan and non lan stuff up.
That is true, but It is all about what we ask it to do. I kind of think you may have just pushed the hub over the edge with something.
This is why I am trying to go through a process of elimination to help you isolate it.
Being that you have a C8 this would probably be what I would do after validating you don't have any known troublesome devices for the C8.
- Go through the migration and ensure that everything is working with it. Leave the C7 off. after the backup is complete for the migration.
- Once you are confident that the migration completed good to the C8 you turn it off briefly so you can clear the radios on the the C7. Only after you are comfortable that the Zwave/Zigbee stuff is working. Then turn the C8 back on. Make sure it is all working
- If you have static ip's for the hubs put the C8 on a new IP and the C7 back on what you were using.
- Now go through the process of using Hub Mesh to get the devices in sync between the C7 and C8. Remove the Lan integrations from the C8.
- Cleanup the C7 so it doesn't have anything but your lan related integrations.
The goal would be to isolate your zwave/Zigbee stuff to the C8 so you can use the new radios and then all the lan stuff on the C7.
If you still have issues on the C7 it is something to do with those rules and apps, If it follows to the C8 then it is something else and need to look at whatever rules were left.
I am trying to go through the process of elimination. I know i have seen threads were Echo Speaks has been blamed for performance issues. I am also certain there are installs that are fine.
