Hi,
I, like a number of people, am having issues with devices not responding to commands after years of working. So I have been reading the various posts and it seems it comes down to one of two things
1. The devices (all for controlling lights) or the PLM (2413I) is failing
2. There is noise on the power line
I am going to assume my devices are working as I have the Insteon hub and use Alexa to control the devices with no issues; this my working assumption, but I could be wrong. This leaves a failing PLM or I have introduced noise somehow for the last 4 years. My vote is the noise.
I have read the Power Line Signal page, plus numerous other articles. I am not concerned the following:
1. use of LED lights
2. introduction of a hot tub (I want to add in the future)
3. introduction of a swimming pool (I want to add in the future)
Throughout my house, I have replaced most of my lights with LED lights. Was that a mistake? What can I do to mitigate this noise? Add more devices? Add filters? Where do I add them? How do I determine where to add them?
If I add a hot tub/swimming pool, how do I add filters to those circuits? They are 60A (2 x 30amp) side panels.
Most of my UPS have filters, http://www.smarthome.com/act-af120-15-amp-plug-in-noise-filter.html, on them. Not sure I can use those.
I was hoping for some ideas on how to proceed. I don't want to give up using my HA ...

Cheers!
