I have a new router and now I need to configure my homey bridge to the new wifi.

But I can’t add a new Homey since the it only support one bridge on the network.

Before I remove the current one from my Homey app I want to be sure that my configurations ans devices and flows not are removed .

Can anyone help out? , how shall I connect to my new WiFi?

I solved by naming same name on the SSID as the old router, worked perfectly 👌

Just FYI, when you use a Homey Cloud instance, nothing is running on the bridge, it’s all in the cloud. The bridge is just a piece of ‘dumb’ hardware to provide an interface from a Homey Cloud instance to local radios like zigbee, z-wave, IR etc.

The current one…  
Removeing the current one Homey (from the Homey mobile app)… removes everything… your Homey, the Homey with zones and the devices and flows. Everything…

Removing the Homey Bridge from your Homey inventory … just removes the bridge and reset it to factory defaults.

Then adding the bridge again to that same Homey will ask to connect your wifi.
