Why is Alexa failing again ?

Edit:



And via Android APP the connection for Authentication is extreme slow... Maybe Alexa get an time out cause of extreme slow gateway?

Well, for me Alexa fails once a week. or more often.
Personally I think that is not a good service.

Today (Monday 16th) The Germany server is offline.. https://support.zwave.eu/status/
but I am still connected to it ! (it is not working) sudo netstat -np 78.46.43.211:22
But I go to Management-remote access-Enable remote access.....
Turn it off, then re-enable it. and Alexa now works. Now via Switzerland 46.20.244.72:22

Owner of Alexa app and Remote Access is Z-wave.me
Is it possible to get these apps to re-connect to a working server when one of them goes offline.

A suggestion that might be a high priority request.
Otherwise I think z-way is getting better.
Thanks

Should be a quick change in z-way for the programmers.....

Alexa hasn't worked for me in quite some time. I see new servers were added, I see my zwave RPi2 connecting to the servers and and authorizing their keys to the know lists. But the connectivity and reliability hasn't increased.

Seems to be after Alexa update, that you can add new devices? I must create all from scratch new and i doesn't use the interface from alexa app for some weeks. I try now to finde devices, but i can't find any zway devices. Amazon still can connect to server without any issue...Via My Smart Home Skills and Z-Way Smart Home i get the Skill and via Settings i get a connected status. Now how can i find my devices???

I have uninstalled Alexa in my Ios device. Then my friend told me that you can install Amazon Alexa. Even I tried that to do, but that doesn't work. All I tried was to reboot my Ios device. Do you have any Ios device key to run the applications?

I can't get this to work. It seems as though Alexa isn't intrepreting what the app is sending.

I can authenticate with find.z-way.me just fine, I can add the alexa app and alexa skill just fine, but alexa does not detect any new devices.

I check my logs and this is what I see:
[2018-10-24 22:42:31.613] [core] Received data from Alexa Skill
[2018-10-24 22:42:31.625] [core] Return Response to Alexa Skill

So clearly alexa can communicate with my zway server, yet it's not returning any devices. Any ideas?
