WARNING: Performing a Full Reset will return the hub to initial settings. Zigbee and Z-Wave radios will be reset, and cloud connections will no longer work without registering again. If your hub is not functioning correctly, consider a Soft Reset instead and manually reset each radio.


Performing a Full Reset

  1. Navigate to http://[Your Hub IP]:8081/ and you will see the Hubitat Diagnostic Tool* main page.
    • NOTE: (Replace [Your Hub IP] with the IP address of your hub)
  2. Choose Full Reset

  3. If you are not already logged in, you will be prompted to log in. The password is the MAC address which is printed on a sticker on the bottom of your hub, but you may also find it by going to Settings in your Hubitat Web Interface and choosing Hub Details
    • NOTE: For your privacy protection, the login is set to timeout periodically. If you see Error 401 displayed, please Log Out of the Diagnostic Tool, then close all your browser's windows and log back in using the hub's MAC address. You can find you hub MAC address on the bottom of your hub, or go to Hub Details for information on how to find your hub MAC address from the Hubitat Web Interface.
