HomePod Mini WiFi setup causes issues I have two WiFi networks - 5GHz running in ac/ax mode and 2.4 GHz running in b/g/n/ax mode. All my Apple devices are running on faster 5GHz, but HomePod mini can only connect to 2.4GHz as it supports 802.11n WiFi. After setup, this creates warning that ' HomePod mini is unresponsive' in HomeKit and I can't connect to it anymore as the message says 'HomePod Mini is on a different WiFi network from other Apple products'. Is there a happy solution to this or do I need to get rid of them?

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
