Dear all,
I have some serious issues with 1 of my networks (I have 2, one directly on the Hometroller S6, this one through Znet extension (EU version, stick on it is a ZMEE UZB1)).
What started it: one of my nodes stopped responding, node ID was showing 'no node ID'. So I tried to restore a backup on the Zwave controller. Afterwards, all of my devices on this controller became 'no node ID' which seems logical since this controller seemed only to have 1 node displayed (itself), instead of 25 as it should and did before... But everything except the one node seemed to be working (but for how long).
What I tried:
What I did not try yet: take the ZMEE UZB1 directly on the Hometroller and define it as a new interface so I can restore BU on it without it being connected to the Znet (I have the impression restoring the BU on the ZMEE UZB1 does not work through the Znet, perhaps it might work when directly connected).
Why not: if something goes wrong, nothing will work without plan B and I don't see any way of resolving things without rebuilding the complete network. Which I try to avoid for obvious reasons.
Any suggestions for a solution or troubleshooting this one?
Kind regards,
Kristof.

What I tried:
- have a spare Smartstick+. Defined it locally on the Hometroller to restore the network on it. Then moved it to the Znet to replace the ZMEE UZB1. Everything looked normal again (device Id were OK, controller contains 25 nodes), but no communication with any node unfortunately.
- placed back the ZMEE UZB1: everything working as before, even the 1 node which started the problem. Looks like the HS3 dtabase and the Zwave network got resynchronised somehow by the previous steps. However, the Zwave network in the controller shows only 1 node again, so I am sure a certain moment, a problem will pop-up again once HS3 notices that...
