This is my first post in this forum, as a pre-amble (although I know everyone says it) I have been a programmer for over 20 years and I have most liekly NOT tried the obvious 
but I am seriously losing my mind and actually thinking about going back to smartthings.
Software
Home Assistant Core 2022.5.2
Home Assistant Supervisor 2022.05.0
Home Assistant OS 7.6
Zwave Info
I am running Zwave-JS with supervisor addon
Driver Version: 9.0.7
Server Version: 1.16.1
I am running it on an RPI4B 8Gb
I am using the Aetoces Z-Stick Zwave Stick Gen 5+
I have a lot of zwave devices, around 25 Aeotec Wallmotes,
Multisensor 6 x 10
IMPORTANT: I have 4 aeotec range extenders (one on every floor)
I have gone to Home Assistant and I really like it, however I NEED to intgegrate zwave since my house lights run on Wall Motes and all my lights for the entire house, go through Tasmota devices (centrally).
Problem
I have my RPI in a central location, and I am adding the devices one by one and they work fine, however when I put them in their proper locatgion, they lose connection to the zstick , eventually mark as dead nodes and that’s it.
The issue from what I am understanding, since I am doing this for a central location the mesh is just setting one hop to the devices and not through neighbours (I might be wrong)
When I put the devices in thier place and try to heal the network - so that interenally it can re-route through the proper node path, it says that it failed, because the devices can’t be reached (obviously)>
SO, I am losing my mind, I have already added and removed all the devices three times with the same result (actually not the same result - the last time when it happened, I broke one of the fibaro sensors in a fit of rage)
Since the devices to be added need to be within radio range, and then have to be moved this is gonna remain an issue,
WHAT AM I MISSING HERE !?
Secondary problem
The devices in Zwave-JS went back to their default names and not the custom names I gave them, so I have no idea which is which.
Logs
I have opened the logs, but it shows nothing special just that it is trying to communicate with the nodes and it failes (no ACK)
Healing the network
Healing the network does not work at all, just fails to communicate with the nodes and as you can see the routing info is NODE 001 (controller) holds all neighbors
