    What Hub did you have and what Hub do you have now?

    I am guessing the Blink system only connects on the 2.4 GHz frequency wifi band and not the 5 GHz one - do you know if that's correct?  If so the single SSID for the new Hub (combines both frequencies )  may be "confusing" the Blink.

    One thing to try first is to log into the Hub settings and click the box to "disable" the 5GHz wifi - save and restart and see if the Blink can then connect to the remaining 2.4 GHz band .  If it does - go back in an re-enable the 5GHz band to allow faster connections on the other equipment.

    If not report back
