Yes, can be done. In teh xAPx10 connector go to file>properties and go
to the xAP tab.  Turn on xAPx10 schema send.  Now x10 messages are sent
over xAP and the homeseer plugin should receive them.

I have seen an old netgear AP throw a wobble when it receives too many
broadcasts, an update to it's latest firmware fixed it.

99.99% of people do not do what I was doing. I've corrected the problem
by using the Homeseer uptime to prevent any script running under 60
