So, I just had a quick power outage here at the house. The bulbs are back up and looking for the network before my router and wireless AP are fully rebooted. The bulbs of course get huffy and decide even once they connect to the WiFi that they're gonna sit in local only mode. Being able to "reboot" the bulbs without having to go and physically power cycling them would be nice.
And yes, I try tapping on DNS Failure,or the various other options that come up when I go in to the settings for each bulb, but this never seems to work out. End up having to go to each bulb and power cycle it to get them to reconnect to the network. A soft reboot from within the app would be nice.
And yes, a UPS for my cable modem, router, and WiFi AP are on my short list to get in here, but budgets are budgets.
