So my house sale fell through and I lost internet so I got a 5G hub until the engineer visits. My question is how easy is it to switch the wi-fi network on a ring door bell and hive heating once I request the hive goes back on again? Any ideas?

    Set the SSID and password of the new router to that of your previous router.

    As @Ayr_Rage suggests its much easier to change the SSID and password on the router than it is to change everything else.

    That's what I've done several times when we've changed our broadband ISP -  5 minutes to change the router settings, rather than working my way round the 30 odd items that we've got connected
