Zwave mesh network instability

Funnily enough I have just posted this

Z Wave Routing Basics

There is a lot of misunderstanding about z-wave routing. This is a very simplified bitesize description that avoids explanation of how the routes are established and managed, how preferences are defined and the types of attempts at communication that are made to get a command or acknowledgement through. It deals with the simple and ideal source route example. All of the clever things z-wave does to get the message through will be described in a later post. [image] Unlike routing in networks…

which may explain why there is more to it than this diagram. It has its uses but as you point out it is not the mesh.

I still have a few edits but it is close to finished.
