So I went from that pain in the ass, primitive X-10 system to Insteon 10 years ago. What a difference! Instead of the carrier current signal being blocked by the 2 phases in my home electric service, Insteon could jump over it with an RF signal. Insteon is a dual path system: carrier current AND RF signal. If one method won't communicate, the other takes over. And each device becomes another node. Yes, Insteon is a mesh networking based. Each module becomes a node redundancy it has a hub.
This is why I really like Insteon, it makes it a truly reliable system. Everything else is built on it. It exists outside a WiFi, Ethernet of Cloud-based network.
