No… not normal.

It wouldn’t be impossible the Hue Hub to be having a hardware issue on some network issue?

  • Does the Hue App have any trouble controlling your lights?

  • You can “uninstall” the Hue Hub SmartApp … but when you reinstall it, your bulbs may have new Device IDs and thus any Automations, connections to IFTTT, ActionTiles, etc., would have to be rebuilt.

  • There’s direct login LAN login to the Hue Hub (via browser), but I’m unaware if it gives any useful logging. Worth Googling for it though! Do you know your Hue Bridge LAN address? Browse to http://address … meh I just checked… you’ll get an information page, but no logs at that address. You may need a tool, but start with the Hue App.

I renamed your post title from Hue Hub Problems to Hue Bridge Problems to keep @JDRoberts from going crazy :grin:

After you have validated that your Hue Bridge is online and your Hue lights are working from the Hue App, then look at rebooting your SmartThings hub.

Troubleshoot one thing at a time. It makes resolving easier. Before you delete anything (if you have a lot of Routines, scenes or other integrations with your lights), and you can’t fix it, go to support before you make things worse.
