Just curious if it's just me having problems (HS3 running the latest Z-Wave Beta on a Smartstick +) or have others seen or experienced times where Z-Wave just hangs, the wrong devices turn on/off, or exhibits strange behavior.

Are you sure your problem is in the ZWave plugin, or perhaps it is the Homeseer server itself. When I was running on a 32 bit Windows 10 system, I did have to reboot the server every couple of weeks, as things would become slow (and sometimes weird). Since moving over to a 64 bit Windows system (same ZWave dongle), things have been rock steady. Of course I did have problems when I had a intermittent malfunctioning ZWave module, but that is understandable.

Might be the server, but I've been running it on my trusty Win 7 64 bit AMD system with 5 WD 7200rpm Black drives in a Raid 5 configuration so I don't think speed is the issue. And I have a 64G SSD that Win7 is using as the SpeedBoost Cache.
Whatever I do is lightning fast, and when it's the Z-Wave network is running it responds instantly. It just goes wonky every once in a while. Maybe I have a bad stick?

Only going into the plugin's management page, disabling the Z-Wave plugin via the slide switch, and then re-enabling the plugin fixed it.
I hope someone at HST is working on an update to the Z-Wave plugin! If I could vote 5 times for my poll, I would.

I just found in the Beta section that there is a 3.02.4 beta of the Z-Wave plugin available. Has no date on it, no support info and no docs.
I loaded it, because the wife is ready to strangle me, and hopefully this might be a little more stable.
I'll let you all know. If other brave souls are out there, give it a go....
