Yes I think the Vera Plus has a way to go. Seems that none of the modern
Z-=
Wave / Zigbee controllers are that good - they always promise SO much but
a=
lways fail to deliver.
After my house move and a move away from hard wired HA controllers (HS,
HV,=
Cbus, Comfort etc etc), I've been experimenting with a Fibaro HC2, SmartTh=
ings and Vera Plus - all have major issues of some sort. I just wonder if
t=
he task is just too big for them?

Thanks Paul, some reading of the micasaverde forums and I came across this
=
post which put me off a little!!
http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php/topic,36835.0.html
Agree re smart things and I'd really like to keep my light waverf switches
=
as having only just implemented them in January we really like them.
When everything is working the responsiveness of indigo is phenomenal.
Pres=
sing a light wave rf button to trigger some zwave dimmer plugs for bedside
=
lights is immediate as if you've flicked a normal lightswitch.
My issue with my Mac is that I'm getting repeated crashes due to (from
what=
I can tell) CPU load. It's my main machine as well which is clearly not th=
e recommended route for a reliable 'server' setup.
Maybe my choice should be between a Vera plus and a dedicated Mac mini for
=
indigo and plex?!
Cheers
Noel
