Rich,
Just a few observations:
1. The light on the Z-Net remains "Green" for a long time even though the Ethernet cable is disconnected.
2. The the plugin does seem to get buffered data that was not processed during the disconnect even though it does not establish a complete connection due to the failure of the HomeID.
3. I have a newer Z-Net in the 911 Center office that controls our thermostat and is connected to the system through a 5 port switch. This Z-Net, like yours, does not fail like the others. It re-establishes communications quickly. My field units (6 of them) and my home system Z-Net will not do this. My home Z-Net is probably serial # 0001.
4. I have edited the sysctl.conf file in all of the Z-Nets to change the TCP Timeout to 20 seconds.
