I cannot setup HomePod.

I purchased HomePod about 3 three years ago. Then I used it for about 6 months. After that I did not use it about 2 and half years. I tried to setup it again. However, it always gives message 'unable to connect WiFi.' I reset the HomePod to factory setting. I also reset network setting. However, I have the same message. The ISO is different from the 3 years ago, since I am using iOS 15.5. Since I did not use it for 2 and half years, I did not update the HomePod. Please help me.

HomePod uses the Wi-Fi network that your iOS or iPadOS device is connected to. Use your iOS or iPadOS device to forget the Wi-Fi network, then join the network again.
Personal Hotspots might work, but aren't recommended.
If you're using an 802.1X Wi-Fi network, learn which networks are supported and how to connect to them.
HomePod mini and HomePod support captive portal Wi-Fi networks that require additional sign-in steps, for example those provided by hotels or dorms. Use your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to connect to the network, then follow the onscreen instructions for setup.
