smart hub changed ip address

[thehitpack]

I changed the ip address of my hub from  192.168.1.254 to 192.168.1.255.

I now can't access my smart hub manager is there any way to fix this?

[licquorice]

Factory reset it by pressing the recessed button for about 20 seconds.

Why on earth did you change it to the broadcast address. Why did you change it at all?

[thehitpack]

i want myself to be the only person who can access the hub manager is this posssible?

[licquorice]

No

[thehitpack]

192.168.1.254

This is the ip address for hub manager.

Is there a way to change then. You say the answer is no but i believe nothing is impossible.

[licquorice]

You can change it, but what's the point? Whatever you change it to will be served by DHCP as the gateway address to all devices.

[thehitpack]

i want to change it so no one can access the manager but myself.

[imjolly]

Just change the admin password from the one on the back of the hub so only you can make Any changes

[licquorice]

Until somebody factory resets it. It will still be viewable although changes can't be made.

i dont like the fact tht in access control people can see what devices are being blocked.

id rather that wasn't the case so i could just explain the internet is down.
