Tony,
I understand your comments regarding 'real life' range LOS perfect conditions vs various obstacles that attenuate signal to various amounts, interference from WIFI, etc.
I also hear you regarding how slow the mesh repair/redirecting traffic may be. How long would you expect the zigbee mesh to heal after it breaks?
I try to mitigate these unknown variables simply by picking a static worst case scenario, successfully pairing and demonstrating a robust feedback loop (open/close contact) of more than one sensor. I can open and close over a chunk of time (~3 hours in this case) with 100% hit rate on HE status recognition. I can now try the same the next day, same spot, no moving setup and breaking zigbee routings, and not have connection or status is stuck open, etc.
I definitely don't have a complex, dynamic operating environment. As stated above, if I were limited by spotty connectivity, I imagine the first night of testing would yield intermittent results as would the second night. I'd get consistently intermittent results if you will. Right now I'm seeing bursts of clarity which I don't understand.
unless I'm mistaken, I don't have the tools to truly trouble shoot this opaque system.
And I'm relegated to blindly dumping more repeaters on the issue... anyone have thoughts on Sonoff s31Lite outlet repeaters?
