Unable to access Hub, though still working

Today, i am unable to access settings, devices, almost any part of the HE.
Dashboards work, if they were already loaded, but something seems horribly wrong.

I would reboot, but cannot get to that.

Any ideas?

The most common cause is that the hub somehow lost network connectivity or changed its IP address but is otherwise functioning. Is it configured for DHCP and is its IP reserved in your router's DHCP table?

That symptom usually means that the Hub has picked up a new IP Address. The hub doesn't require a static IP, but we humans would prefer to have bookmarks, etc. for our hubs. Use findmyhub.hubitat.com to find the hub's current address and then look at reserving an address in your ISP router.

You've been a Community member long enough that this advice is probably unappealing, but there's not a lot of other clues in your message.

You can also try http://hubitat.local which should open up the hub’s administration pages.

THanks everyone.
Reserving the IP address seemed to cause everything to act really strange.
Restarting the router, then restarting HE fixed it all.
