The quick and easy way to return the system to a working state is to reboot everything (assuming nothing is broken). Find the doorjamb computer. It is a laptop hidden under the tiny shelf under the larger shelf on the east wall up agains the big white La Commune counter. On the side of this laptop is the power button. Press it for about a second, then wait for the computer to shut down on its own. If it doesn't shut down after e.g. 20 seconds then press and hold it until it shuts down. After it shuts down, find the big black power brick connected the the door. It's lying on the floor up against the east wall closer to the door. It's a black power brick with one wire going to the arduino mounted on the door and one wire going an extension cord. Unplug where the power brick is plugged into the extension cord, wait a couple of seconds, then plug it back in. Now go to the laptop and press the power button to power it back on. The laptop will take a while to boot. At some point during boot it will speak its IP addresses. A minute or two after it has spoken its IP it should be ready. If it still doesn't work then something more profound is wrong.
