Update: While I did get Insteon working (with the Elk), it is not as reliable as I would have hoped. I've attributed this to needing more signalinc's and I have more on the way. I'll provide feedback once I get them in place.
The other thing I found helpful (most likely related to my situation however) is that when I tried to link multiple lights, it would invariably miss some. If I did each one separately and confirmed via blinking lights before ending the programming, it worked out much better.
I did find one circuit that I could not link, that I am assuming an additional signallinc on that circuit and another in another location will cleanup.
One surprising piece with this particular light: It has an outside front light that is linked to one (on another circuit) by the front door. They are linked to each other so hitting one will turn the other on (the scenario where I referenced the slight delay as well).
If I manually hit either light, they trigger the other light. However if I ask the elk to turn on the front light, the linked light does not go off. I'm going to retest once I get the new signalincs in and have a decent 'mesh network' going.
