Really good to know. But I have more than 20 switches. Lots of fun this weekend then !
Thank's

It worked with that switch !!! And without the security, the update went very well ! Also last night, I removed all ghost devices (there was 3) and did a ZWave repair. And this morning with the power cycle I was able to include the switch. Thank you so much for your help, really appreciated.
Cool. Good to hear. Just remember, no need to keep hitting that Z-Wave repair button through all 20 of those. Plus devices will rebuild the neighbor tables by themselves.
@SmartHomePrimer I still have a problem. I was able to reinclude all switches that had security. I removed the security. Now when updating the firmware I have 3 switches that took about one hour to update the .OTZ. But I'm unable to update the .BIN. It stopped in the middle and say : Device Firmware Updater: ERROR: The device was unable to receive the requested firmware data.
That's why I'd like my ZStick to work. I don't know what is the impact of having the OTZ loaded but not the BIN.
I MAYBE found why. I have 3 Zwave networks. I have 2 range extender on 2 different networks. They were close from each other. I moved the one for HE little bit far and now it seems to work for now.
Why?
Ring
Smartthings (not dead yet)
HE
It helped to move the extender but did not fixed all. Still have some BiN update problems
I finally was able to update all devices. But I had to reboot the hub a couple of times. Thank you
AFAIK, z-wave doesn't have the zigbee concept of non-overlapping channels. So running three z-wave networks potentially increases the odds of spectral interference by increasing noise.
In the long-run, I would recommend decreasing that down to two by eliminating ST. I have three zigbee networks running in my house, but a single z-wave network.
Honestly never really thought about the impact because for me there isnβt any. I have my Ring hub and two HE hubs (both with Z-Wave device joined to them), within a foot of each other and have no issues. But overall my Z-Wave network is small.
Hehe, for sure that's the goal !
