Does the IP address field in the XTension dialog fill in with the correct IP address? Or is it still trying to talk to the old one?If you refresh that field does the IP address fill back in or is it stuck from the old one? The most obvious reason to get a no response timeout like that would be if the address was wrong. It tries to get it from the Hue servers like the iPhone apps do, The servers will return multiple IP’s if they still have the old hub registered with them and I think if I get multiple responses I just take the first one, which may be the old hub in this case.

It looks like queries from XTenstion,  but it never gets the response it wants from the hub, The data is captured, but I haven’t figured out how to show in an email - if anyone wants to see more details please let me know.
