Homekit hubs not responding after changing

I tried to replace my Spectrum One router with a Linksys MX4200. None of my HomeKit hubs are responding. Internet is working fine on my devices but HomeKit is not. I rebooted everything but HomeKit still reports none of the hubs are responding.

Homekit WiFi Devices All Unresponsive For the past couple weeks all of my WiFi Homekit devices have been completely unresponsive in HomeKit. I thought it was just a WiFi problem, but here's the thing: My thread devices still work perfectly The WiFi devices that are unresponsive in HomeKit can be used through their respective apps. If I switch my Home Hub (by say unplugging my HomePod Mini and letting my Apple TV become the Home Hub) the devices will work again for a little bit but then all go unresponsive. Same thing if I reset my router. Sometimes they will all start responding spontaneously, only to go unresponsive again after a day or two. My WiFi is pretty bad, but it's working the same as usual and clearly the devices are working in their apps so I doubt this is a WiFi problem.

HomeKit accessories go “No Response” after about 15 minutes. I have had HomeKit smart outlets working correctly for years. Within the past few weeks, the outlets stopped working. When I re-install the devices, they work for a short time, but then I get the “No Response” status in the Home app. Wi-Fi outlets Last night I re-installed two WiFi outlets and they worked fine at first, including running an automation. After about 15 minutes I got “No Response”. Bluetooth outlet I re-installed a Bluetooth outlet and it worked fine, but would not run an automation. After about 30 minutes I got “No Response”. My Wi-Fi router, an Xfinity Xfi modem, indicates the signal to the devices is “strong”. My HomeKit Hub is a HomePod. The Wi-Fi outlets are in the same room as the router. The Bluetooth outlet is about 6 feet from the hub. Over the past month, I had problems with intermittent Wi-Fi, but that was solved last week. My hub, iPads and iPhones are all running 16.2.

Homekit all devices unavailable Every so often my devices come up as currently unavailable. Have to reset modem and router to resolve. 2 Homes. Multiple homepods and Apple TV’s. Multiple switches and plugs. Using Linksys MX4200 mesh wit 1 parent and 3 child nodes. I thought it might be related to lease times for internal IP address. However how often it happens is not reliable. any ideas?

You might need to reset HomePod and set up again on the iOS device connected to the new wifi.

First try resetting network settings on your iPhone: In Settings > General > Transfer or Reset > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Join wifi again after it restarts. It might take a moment before establishing a connection on the HomePod

The solution was to remove all accessories from HomeKit and after connecting to new network and router adding them back again.
