How to get Dashboards to open when IP changed with new router and Local vs Cloud and current vs. legacy

I got a new router (TP-Link S4 Mesh) and my hub's IP changed. I can get to the main Dashboards area but not into any of created dashboards.

I made a Main Dashboard I go to while using my iMac and iPad and a separate top one for my iPhone. I then made dashboards for each room and put them into the Main and iPhone dashboards.

Do I need to go into each dashboard and press the Reset Access Token?

If so, do I then pick one of these?


to create a new link? If so, I'm not 1,000% sure on the choices. I get that the difference between Local Lan Link and Cloud Link is a local link only works while I'm on my home network vs. anywhere. But what isn't so clear is why wouldn't it to be the cloud so it would be available everywhere. It is because the cloud would be slower and perhaps more open to be hacked?

Also, I'm not sure when and why and when I would want a legacy link vs. the current ones.

Thanks,

If you're using the IP address for the Dashboard links on your phone, just changing it to your new iP address should work. I don't know about Android, but on iOS, I'm not sure there's any way to modify the address of a site you've "pinned" to your homescreen, so you might need to just remove and re-create it, using a new link from your screenshot.

You do not need to do "Reset Access Token," which will destroy any existing LAN or cloud links you're using anywhere (except legacy links, which are affected by the token in the parent app, not that particular Dashboard/child app--which is probably the biggest difference between the two: the legacy links may provide access to dashboards beyond just the one you've shared, and the "modern" links are easier to revoke without messing up all dashboard links if you think the link may have been shared with unauthorized parties, for example). This is true even if you use the IP. If you look at the full URL, there is an access token embedded it in, and this is what that changes. Just your hub changing an IP address would not affect this portion. That being said, if you're creating new links anyway, I suppose it wouldn't matter.

For LAN vs. cloud, there's another difference that I don't think mentioned: LAN is likely faster not just because it doesn't need the Internet but also because it opens a websocket directly to your hub and should update attributes displayed in real time. I think the cloud Dashboards use HTTP only so depend on your refresh interval (which LAN will also use if websocket fails, though more often I've seen it just stop updating altogether...another story). That and, of course, cloud links require the Internet, even if you're at home. I wouldn't be too concerned about security with cloud, at least not more than I'd be with any HTTPS site (which all cloud links are).

I was able to get into my dashboards only by touching the home and then the [ ] icon (which I think may be local?) cloud icon. But from there if I touched the Hubitat icon at the top left of the dashboard it took me to the topmost dashboard, not the sub-dashboard I called it from. But if I hit the browser's back button, it does take me back to the dashboard I called it from. (BTW, this happened not only on my Mac, but my iPhone X in FireFox and my daughter's iPhone X in Sierra). Plus, the URL always says "cloud".

So I tried to create a couple new dashboards but I can't get into them at all from Dashboards (I can get into where I created them from in the Hubitat Dashboard app). I tried creating all 4 links, (local, could, legacy local and legacy cloud) but only the cloud ones worked.

So something weird is going on.

I had the same problem -- new modem & router changed the address for the hub and dashboards wouldn't work because they kept directing to the old static address. A simple hub reboot caused the necessary update to the hub info and the dashboards started directing to the new static address.
