Hi All,
I've just received my Razberry 7 Pro this weekend, and was able to successfully switch from by previous 5 series Razberry to the 7 series without any issues. So first of all, my compliments to ZWave.ME for making this such a smooth proces. Created a backup, replaced the chip, restored the backup and all worked just fine.
Now when checking up my network, I noticed under "Signal Strength" there were way more devices listed (e.g. device 4, 5 and 6) than actually active in the network, and even weirder, they seem to be receiving / having signal strength as well (see below screenshot).
When I check the Routing Table, I also noted a number of devices reporting several "ghost" devices under "Routes From This Node" (e.g. device_39 does not exist).
Now I have two questions:
1) Is this normal?
2) If not, how can I get rid of these "ghost" nodes.
There are no failed devices listed.

Re: "Ghost" devices showing up under Signal Strength
Just a thought... these may be Z-Wave devices that are not in your Home Id (i.e., they belong to a different Z-Wave network ID). It may be possible to verify this theory under Analytics->Statistics to see if there foreign network messages. If that's the case, it would be helpful if the UI for Signal Strength was divided into 2 sections - the top section could show devices in the same Home ID and the bottom section could should foreign network devices (otherwise, it would be very confusing to have the same device ID/Name appear twice, with different RSSI values).
Re: "Ghost" devices showing up under Signal Strength
Those are not devices from another Home ID. It is a bug. Hopefully already fixed!
Please do this: https://forum.z-wave.me/viewtopic.php?p=92958#p92958 and then update the firmware of your RaZberry 7 Pro (as before under Controller Info tab). This will fix it.

Thank you @PoltoS, upgrading the firmware and applying the fix resolved the issue!
Re: "Ghost" devices showing up under Signal Strength
Hey @PoltoS - im having this issue at the moment. I recently installed 2x (one is using stock firmware on 7.15.00), and another on 7.17. Ive updated one of them to 7.17 and the issue still persists. I've got 2x Razberry Pro 7s to replace a single Razberry 2 (meaning there is currently 3 in operating). Im gathering its just picking up the z-wave devices on the other z-ways - I'm not sure if its problematic.
