HomePod Peer-to-Peer Communication issue with TP-Link smart connect router

The TP-Link Smart Connect may cause an issue on HomePod 2 with message being “HomePod Peer-to-Peer Communication Issue: “Some Features May Not Work on This Network”

Resolve for me was to disable the Smart Connect. This also made HomePod Minis and the HomePod 2 work well together again.

Cannot connect 3 HomePod Minis to Wifi with OS17. OS 16.6 connects I have 3 HomePod Minis They have connected to a Wifi network for the past 2-3 years surviving all upgrades and were on 16.6 Upgraded to OS 17 and none of the 3 HPMinis no longer connect to the exact same Wifi network. Displays a 'Cannot connect to Wifi' message on my iPhone with zero assistance or hints to the problem. I can see the HPMini briefly connect to my Wifi via the router log and then disconnect. Reset and restore with OS17 and same problem with iPhone AND iPad (both on iOS17) Downgrade one HPMini to 16.6 and it connects without problem to the exact same Wifi. Run the upgrade to OS17 and fails. Currently restoring back to 16.6 and complained to Apple Support

How do I use HomeKit and Philips Hue with multiple wifi access points (2 routers)? I have two Wi-Fi access points (1 main router - with internet and 1 second router). My Philips Hue Bridge is plugged into one of the access points (into second router). When my HomePod mini is connected via Wi-Fi to the same access point (the second router) as the Hue Bridge, HomeKit controls the lights as expected. However, if I move the HomePod mini to a different part of the house and my HomePod switches to the second wifi access point (the main router), even if is the same network, HomeKit (HomePod mini) is unable to communicate with the Hue Bridge. I reset the Hue Bridge, HomePod mini, HomeKit and both routers and recreated the linkage but it still won't work as described above. Note: Same network with one DHCP server. Same SSID for all Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz Main Router, 2.4 and 5.0 GHz Second Router) I appreciate any help, suggestions, etc.
