Re: New kid on the block - X-10 reliability
Hello Chris,
thanks for your input.

well, it is getting better. At least, all signal get thru now. The
problem had been the USB connection to the CM11 together with heyu under
linux. I switch to the regular COM port and now everything looks good.

I didn't know about idratek, but have had a look at the EIB stuff. I am
sure there are places for those products, but for my needs they are
* not priced right
* need additional wiring
Quick side question: Do you know if you have to have a bus, or could use
a star topology for the idratek system? A friend of mine has CAT7 in
each and every room of his new house, wired to a central point in the
basement.
