I also have exactly the same problem (already now for the second time). Lost connection to Hue bridge (both Homey and Hue static IP’s), error is “Searching for Hue Bridge”.

Rebooting both Hue Hub als well as Homey with no effect. Any ideas?

Is there any option to re-pair the bridge?

Two weeks ago I moved all my smart house WiFi stuff to a separate WiFi network, still use dame IP range and everything works fine after set up, except Hue. Two days after the move all lights got the red triangle with exclamation mark, and bridge was unavailable, tried updating app, uninstalling app, finally I reset my Hue Bridge, but still no connection to homey.  
Everything else communicates fine with homey and Hue Bridge work’s dine with phone app.  
Any suggestions as to how I should fixed this?

Hi guys!  
I’m having the same issue and have tried rebooting Homey & Hue bridge, reinstalled Hue APP and checked firmware updates etc. But the red flags and “searching for hue bridge” remains ☹

When removing the Hue lights in Homey and searching for them again they pop up directly so there is a connection found to the devices…

Any ideas or solutions in sight?

Cheers  
/Fredrik

Since there is no “Bridge” device in the official Philips Hue App, how do i connect the bridge to Homey Pro?
