If you’re replacing your Wingbits station hardware (for any reason), here’s the proper procedure to follow:
1
Don't delete current station
Keep your current station on the Wingbits dashboard until your new device has arrived and you're ready to install it.
NOTE: Deleting it early will unlink the device and release your hex, making it available for someone else to reserve. Don't do this!
2
Get replacement station
Once your replacement device is in hand and ready to install, go ahead and delete the existing station from your Wingbits dashboard.
3
Clear browser cache
Press Shift+Ctrl+R in your browser to fully refresh the page's cache (clears any cached location claim/reservation).
4
Register new station
Create a new station in your Wingbits account using the same location as before.
This will start a new 48-hour reservation period to complete onboarding and linking of your new device, following the normal setup and onboarding steps.
Additional notes
You will not lose the rewards from the replaced station.
Your rewards for the replaced station will still be visible on the rewards chart and paid out as expected.
The new station will appear as a new color on the Overview page rewards chart.
You will no longer see the replaced station on the My Stations page.
