Apple TV 4K 2021 64GB Thread not working

How can check if Thread is enabled or not on my Apple TV 4K 2021? I have multiple Thread devices like Eve sensors and Nanoleaf lights and when I check the network setting in the Eve or Nanoleaf App I can see the Thread Network but I can not find my Apple TV 4K 2021.

Apple TV new update killed thread network So after my Apple TV 4K (2021 64gb) updated to tvOS16.1 last night my thread devices are not connecting with thread anymore. All my Nanoleaf light strips are now connected over Bluetooth, and I can’t seem to get thread to work at all anymore. I factory reset the AppleTV, I removed one of the light strips from homekit and factory reset the light strip then reconnected it to homekit and it was still connecting with Bluetooth. I can’t get any of the light strips to connect to thread anymore, thread was working great for months until this update.

TVOS support of Thread 1.3.0 Thread 1.3.0 brings big improvements with interoprability between Thread border routers. Using an app I can see my Google Home Hub is on Thread 1.3.0 but my Apple TV is still using 1.2.0. This means that I have two different Thread networks and is stopping them from working properly. Can we please get an update to fix this issue?

① Apple TV 4K (2nd generation) - Technical Specifications

Ports and interfaces

• Thread⁵

5. Not compatible with non-HomeKit Thread devices.

Verify that the smart devices are listed as HomeKit compatible (‘Works with Apple Home’).

② Apple TV is a hub device, but not an accessory, that might be a reason why it doesn’t show in your list?
