HomePod HomePod :: "I'm having trouble connecting to the internet!"

[coreyrexroad]

I didn't have any major issues with my HomePod until I updated to 11.3. After leaving the house for a few hours, the HomePod will randomly respond to me with the phrase "I'm having trouble connecting to the internet!" after any "Hey, Siri..." commands. I could power cycle the HomePod to fix this or AirPlay music from any device to the HomePod to mend the connection issue to allow her to start taking commands again.

After updating to 11.4, I'm having the same issues, but the AirPlay fix no longer works. I can AirPlay to the HomePod, but this doesn't mend the connection issue to allow her to start taking commands again.

I've repaired the HomePod multiple times when the issue occurred after the 11.3 update. Is anyone else having this issue?

No problems here with two homepods, currently working as a pair.

Can you check your wireless router to see if it's connected to the network properly? Check it's IP and ping it with a Mac/pc?
