Philips Hue hardware non-standard ports
Posted: Tuesday 09 June 2026 0:36
2026.2

Philips Hue
Prior to 2026.2, Philips Hue hardware could be configured to use non-standard ports, allowing remote V2 Hue bridges behind port-forwarded routers. After upgrading to 2026.2 the port field disappeared and Domoticz now only attempts V2 HTTPS/443, V1 HTTPS/443 and V1 HTTP/80, causing previously functional remote bridges to fail.
The only remedy seems to be to revert to 2026.1. Are there likely to be any fixes or workarounds?
