Can't access UI (did I brick it?)

I have a C-7.

Don't know what is causing my problem...I introduced a couple of RM rules that I was trying to test a bit; and I was messing with my router (TP-Link Mesh S4) trying to get a smart switch set up. In any regard, I cannot access the Hubitat device in any fashion.

I can see the device on the router, but trying to access via the IP address is not working...browser spins and finally times out. Trying to access via the phone app gives me a 401 error. I've unplugged/plugged in the Hub...no luck. I've rebooted router and unplugged/plugged in the Hub,,,still no luck. findmyhub.hubitat.com finds the Hub via MAC address, but, again, connecting to the resulting IP address times out. I've done the reset button....got the short bit of flashing blue/green to green...still no connection.

It appears the Hub is still working as I see its manipulation of thermostats, albeit with some issues...so maybe new rules are a problem.

Any suggestions as to getting to the UI so that I can turn off the new rules would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

There is one hole on the bottom that is different than the others. Press the button inside for 7 seconds and release it. That will reset the networking only to the defaults.

EDIT: I just checked. It is the round hole. Top row right of center.

Can you access the Diagnostics Menu via port 8081? (http://<HubIPAddress>:8081)

Have you tried accessing from a different device, like a desktop? It sounds like the mobile devices might not be/see the hub on the same network.

Thank you all for your responses.

...and we have a winner! In my goofiing around with my router, I had set up a guest account - which, of course, I had to try out from my desktop. I had failed to reconnect to the network where the Hub resides. All seems to be well, now...even the phone app is behaving (although the phone was always on the same network as the Hub).

Thank you all for your time and consideration.
