I think if Smart Watering is disabled on each device (definitely double check), there are no weather delays manually set (also double check), firmware is up to date on each faucet (v0041), then try unplugging the USB hub and plugging back in, and removing a battery from each faucet to force it to ‘reboot’. If the problem still persists then you’ve found a new bug. In which case, since it effects yourself and no one else, try and return to the store and get a refund on warranty, because no one here seems to get support from Orbit anymore. I don’t think I’ve ever got any replies from their support of any meaningful substance.

You should only have 1 hub for 14 timers. You can have something like 32 timers per hub. If you can load the timer in the app, then there doesn’t seem to be a networking issue. Even if there is a networking issue, the pre-set timer and settings is store in the individual devices, not the app. So you can have the faucet disconnect from the network, and it will still keep on going as per the last schedule sent to the device (someone please feel free to correct me if I’m wrong).
Which firmware are all your devices on? Which models are they?

Only the hub needs to have good access from your WiFi router or WiFi access point, and then at least one of the bhyve faucets needs to be within range of the bhyve usb hub. Then every other bhyve faucet needs to be within range of at least one other faucet which in turn is within range back to the bhyve hub.

I have a few B-Hyve units around my property and one of the (16 station commercial) is not running on schedules.
Smart Watering off, Location set, rain delay off, watering maximums etc all off.
I can manually trigger any of the zones or programs remotely via wifi or internet.
Unit has been running fine for a couple of years, but recently has stopped running on schedules.
I have checked firmware and have power cycled the unit
firmware version 0087 Hardware version WT25G2H-0001
Any assistance/ideas much appreciated -
