I apologize if this has been answered already, I did look but couldn't find anything with my specific issue. I had the original HomePod and experienced the same issue however my new HomePod Mini just arrived and I am having the same issuie.

When setting up my new HomePod it tells me that some of the personal requests features may not work because my network doesn't have peer-to-peer enabled. I know how to login to my router and I am a bit familiar with opening ports, etc. but I can't find any specific information about what ports the HomePod needs me to open. I also noticed a "pass through" feature on my router where I could type in the MAC address for the HomePod. Didn't know if that would fix it as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been frustrated by this for quite some time.
