I do not know way, but putting the Ethernet cable of the bridge in another UTP port actually fixed the connection problem. Thank you so much !

Try giving your Hue device a "reserved IP address" in your router settings and reboot everything. Good luck! Helpful video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnSkpHuah6ell8k

i had this problem just the other day the bridge lost internet connection ,tried all the reset stuff and nothing .... best way i found was go into the philips hue app and delete your account then delete the app ,unplug the bridge and leave it for ten mins ,make sure the app is not on any other device .oh and delete all your hue lights as well,plug the bridge back in and you should get the 3 lights then reinstall the phillips hue app and re register for new account ,you can use the same email you had before just create a new password and follow the on screen instructions as if you are setting up from new and this will work , then just re add all your lights as before ...hay presto all should be working as before

Dang this really saved me. My power didn’t even go out, but I lost internet connection briefly today and this video saved me. I had no idea how to do the DHCP step, so all I did was switch where it was plugged into my xFi gateway and it’s fixed! I am curious if you ever were able to plug it back into where it was before? Like what if this happens again and all my ports have been used and had this issue? Lol I might be pre-stressing, but I am worried it will happen again! Thanks so much ✨

I know what you mean, nerve wrecking whenever the lights flicker. My Google thermostat just stopped connecting to WiFi after outage here recently. Sorry lol. I would have been more detailed about the reservation step had I known so many people would encounter the same issue. Happy to hear the plug cycling remedied it 😀Would love to do a update or part 2 about the IP reservation part, just been so busy. Ty!

Thank you for sharing. I edited my reply to share what issue I had, in case anyone else has made a stupid mistake like I did. While I was trying to connect a new set of lights, my phone did not recognize the bridge. I was trying over and over for two days. Then I saw this video and thought while I try this, I may have to turn off my VPN. Turns out that’s what it was, my VPN was blocking my phone from speaking to the bridge. Oops. I have it on almost always just by default so naturally I just forgot that it interferes with connections. Hope this helps anyone who might be making a silly mistake like i did.

Mine haven't been working correctly for nearly a year. The time based dimming wasn't working, the app wouldn't connect even though Apple Home still functioned for controlling the lights and so did all of the accessories. I tried everything including buying a new hub and that wouldn't connect either. I turned off DHCP as you suggested and the new hub connected to the internet straight away. I reinstalled all the bulbs and accessories and everything works again. Nice one!

I find that if you unhook the power to the Hue Bridge it will reset. The problem is the Bridge powers up before the router can find signal when the power comes back on,

You said a lot without really saying anything so watching this I’m more confused than before. How did you “reserve” your dchp address? What settings did you change on your router & how? You see what I mean? You really never gave anyone the answer to the problem. I can fix it by rebooting my router & Hue Hub but it keeps happening again eventually & who wants to keep doing that?

You misunderstand my video all together. I am sharing an experience I had with my device and some of the things I tried. If you learn from it great. Sorry if you're not tech savvy but I'm not your IT dept. so if you want someone's help, learn to ask for help without being rude. I've already stated everyone's equipment is different and to refer to YOUR service manual/youtube on how to perform those tasks. You see what I mean? Do some research, these steps are pretty basic. Good luck!

Ok so my bridge was working like a charm until 30 mins ago when it just stopped working, the first led is liten but the 2 others don't work at all, even though it's connected to my switch. What can I do?

I feel like in my situation, something in the Hue Bridge or Router (a setting, memory or data) was corrupt. My goal was to basically force a reset of the device and the devices existence on the network. I would try cross referencing some of the success comments on this video with the steps I point out as well, see if anything affects your device in the same way. Seems like some people are getting success with tweaking their router settings and physically unplugging/resetting wires. Steps I took: Reboot Hue Bridge Reboot Router Log into Router Admin Settings (from PC, Phone, Tablet) 192.168.X.X Locate Device on Network (list of connected devices) Change IP address of Hue Bridge (one not in use by any other device) Give Hue Bridge Static/Reserved (varies by router see manual) Save/Reboot Router Unplug Hue Ethernet Connection & Plug Into New Port on Switch/Router

Hey man! I came across your feed from the Yes Theory channel/groups! This is an awesome video! I find it crazy that you haven’t posted in 6 months, you had it going! Are you still making videos or any other forms of content? Maybe this will serve as inspiration to get back on the grind! As for a bit on myself (my name is William!), I started making content with the aim of teaching people to break free of societal norms by seeking discomfort & testing their own limits! A few months after starting, my friends told me to check out this channel called Yes Theory as they said my content reminded them of it.. and like you, I’ve been so inspired by the lifestyle they preach!! Hope you have an awesome day and you are awesome, keep being you! 😁☝🏻

Google your router model and find the manual. Look up how to assign "Static or Reserved IP Address" instructions for your router. In your routers settings assign the Philips Device a new IP address and reset your devices. Change the ethernet port that your Philips Hue is plugged into as well (see video). Seems like a combination of these steps are getting the device to connect for some people.
