Having said that, it might be worth trying anyway. The slow response is likely because it requires multiple hops to get to the distant devices. You might do a resync of the devices in between the Z-Stick and the endpoints (moving from the Z-Stick outward) which may help fix any network routes that may be somewhat wonky.
While re-syncing devices I get an error on every device stating the device might be asleep, yet I can turn it on and off as well as get status instantly.
My apologies if this is the wrong place to post this question.
