What is my Hue Bridge IP address?

Answered by James Kissner

To find the IP address of your Hue Bridge, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the app on your device and navigate to the settings menu. The location of the settings menu may vary depending on the version of the app you are using.

2. Look for an option called “Hue Bridges” in the settings menu and select it. This option allows you to manage the Hue Bridges connected to your network.

3. Once you are in the Hue Bridges section, you should see a list of all the bridges connected to your network. Select the bridge for which you want to find the IP address.

4. After selecting your bridge, you will be shown various details and settings related to that specific bridge. Look for the IP address field, which should display the current IP address assigned to your Hue Bridge.

5. Take note of the IP address shown on the screen. It usually consists of a series of numbers separated by periods, such as “192.168.1.100”.

By following these steps, you should be able to easily find the IP address of your Hue Bridge within the app. It’s worth mentioning that the IP address may change if your network settings are modified or if the bridge is disconnected/reconnected to the network.

I remember when I had to find the IP address of my own Hue Bridge. It was a bit confusing at first, but once I navigated to the settings menu and located the Hue Bridges section, it became much simpler. The app displayed all the necessary information, including the IP address, which I wrote down for future reference. It’s always handy to know the IP address in case you need to troubleshoot or access your Hue Bridge from a different device or application.

Here’s a recap of the steps to find the Hue Bridge IP address:
1. Open the app and go to the settings menu.
2. Select “Hue Bridges” from the options.
3. Choose the specific bridge you want to find the IP address for.
4. Look for the IP address field and note down the displayed IP address.

I hope this helps you locate the IP address of your Hue Bridge!
