| 2023-06-15 |  | | Re-adds fine. Deauthorize, Remove the old hub setting, Enter IP and authorize the new one. press on the hub when it asks and you're good to go. There's a couple sections that mention add & remove so just try both if need be. | |

Huegasm (another extension) works perfectly, found my bridge instantly and i just pressed the button. Done. |
