HE Hub no longer recognizes Hue hub

So, I can still turn lights on and off with the Hue app, but the HE no longer sees it. Anyone else having a problem with this?

My Hue bridge is still responding to Hubitat commands. Since the communications is all local over each user's LAN, there should not be any 'widepread' outages.

Did the IP address of your Hue bridge change recently? If possible, use your router's DHCP server to reserve IP addresses for both your Hue bridge and your Hubitat hub to keep them from changing.

No, but there's been a lot of updates lately, and my Zwave has been acting up afterward. If there was a problem with the HE implementation of Hue, then there might have been a widespread problem.

This must be a local issue. My Hue integration is still chugging along. It is possible DHCP issued it a new IP when the hub renewed its lease.

Have you checked the integration app to determine if it can see your Hue hub? If it can, choose it and complete the app configuration. Everything will be right as rain. :slightly_smiling_face:

It has a static IP from my router. My HE hub just isn't picking it up anymore. :frowning:

Well, I tried two things at the same time (shoulda done one at a time, but...) I removed the USB stick from my router which turned off DLNA, and I moved the Hue HUB over by my computer so I didn't have to walk back and forth. It's working again, but I'm not sure why. I'm thinking it's the DLNA, but I've been using that for about two weeks. I'll plug the USB stick in again and see what happens.
