I would suggest you look at the ISY forum and wiki. When you have an ISY, you can prettty much throw out the Insteon owners manual because you are never going to do it the "manual" way. The ISY is a great tool with great people behind it. If you ask, Michel will probably log onto your system remotely and get on the phone with you and help you out.
I have a 6000sf + house with three subpanels and about 60 Insteon devices. I had lots of problems with bad switches but since getting them all RMA'd out to higher v4's and v5's (really like the 5's), they are working great. Reliability is around 99%. I only have 2 filters in my home and 4 repeaters.
I have never had an Insteon switch flat out die. I have had two lamplincs die which they RMA'd at the age of about 5 years (another recall issue)
And as Pete mentioned, if the owners of the house think that they just don't want it, I would suggest pulling it and putting in regular switches. People on this forum or ebay would buy much of what you have. The ISY is also going to have a UPB firmware available soon as well (currently in beta).
