200.15 Unleashed - HomePod minis cannot join the network after upgrade

[Squozen]

Hi, I’ve noticed that as soon as I installed 200.15 (on an R750/R650 Unleashed network), my HomePod minis couldn’t connect to the network. When I rolled back to 200.14, they had no problem. I don’t see anything obvious in the patch notes that suggest this is expected behaviour. Can anybody corroborate before I log a bug report?

I have the same problem. As soon as I updated, my minis stopped connecting to 5g network but it can connect 2.4ghz.

Hello All,

This is acknowledged!

We are looking into this and will update here.

In the meantime, could you please confirm the below details:

• HomePod mini model information
• Software version of HomePod minis
• WLANs settings

The HomePod Minis are running iOS 17.2. The HomePods in the house are running the same OS, if that helps rule it out. 

The HomePod Mini hardware model is MJ2E3B/A

The WLAN settings are:

WPA3 auth, 802.11r and 802.11k are both enabled. Wifi6 is turned on. The WLAN is on the 5Ghz radio only. These settings all work correctly on 200.14. 

Let me know if you need more.
