Understanding INSTEON Reliability
INSTEON messages travel throughout the home via powerline (the existing house wiring) or wirelessly
via RF using Access Points or other
As the messages make their way to
the INSTEON responders, they are picked up and retransmitted by all other INSTEON devices along the
way. This method of communicating is called a mesh network because every device becomes a signal
repeater. Plus, every INSTEON device confirms that it has received a command. If an INSTEON
controller does not receive this confirmation, it will automatically retransmit the command up to five times.
