• Under General, click "Manage Telehub..."
  • The Region/Estate floater should go away.
  • You should be switched into build mode, with the edit tool selected.
  • A floater should be under the build tools floater, called "Telehub"
  • The floater should say "no telehub".

  • A yellow beacon should appear on the cylinder.

• Close the telehub tool. Fly away from the cylinder.
• Open the world map.
