      @canadianllama is your unifi gear set to static now? Or just dhcp, or a reservation? I believe the cloudkey default fall back IP is 192.168.1.30 - did you mean that vs .20?

      Note: The default fallback IP address of the UniFi Cloud Key is 192.168.1.30.

      Why don't you just set your laptop to a 192.168.1.x IP and connect to it and change it to a static IP that you want to use on your new 192.168.14/23 network

        @johnpoz Yes we have them as static DHCP reservation on the router. But I removed them from that when we tried to fix this issue.
        All the devices (WAPs and network switches) went to the IP of 192.168.1.20... every single one of them. (We could see that on the cloud key, so we still had cloud key access somehow, but basically the entire network went down and just stopped working). We can try set the cloudkey IP static on the device, ill look into doing that.

        Im assuming the unifi devices talk to the router first to get their IP's, then talk to the cloudkey for other stuff, as you can run the equipment without the cloudkey.

        We are setting up a test lab today so hopefully can figure it out.
