The main problem is that Apple HomeKit gives me "not responding" messages a lot on various devices. These devices respond always if I go to the vendor app. In researching this problem everyone keeps pointing to my wi-fi which doesn't seem to make sense to me.
I have cable Spectrum 200meg, with a Netgear C7000 modem routerwith 20 wi-fi devices connected, 4 hard wired, and one 4 port switch. I have no problems with Ring security, iPhones, iPads, Surface tablet, Dish dvr, Ecobee, my Subaru, August door lock. ONLY problems with hue lights (the hue hub is hard wired) and Chamberlain MyQ and ONLY in the Apple HomeKit app and intermittently. My house is wood framed 2000 square feet with modem router about dead center in my home office. I have been searching through this forum for solutions and do not want to add something that will incur disconnects as I do not have those now. As far as hard wiring my attic has blown in insulation making working up there pretty difficult. I do have cat 5e that goes out to the garage to a computer there. Thanks in advance for any advice or insights.
