Bought a HomePod today and it just cannot work with my AppleTV because every time I open an app it crashes the network so I have given up trying to use it with appleTV. I also cant get it to play music (iTunes library) from my Mac or iPhone however it works with my iPad. Podcast however work and the main reason I bought it was for podcasts.
 
He always complains about his Wi-Fi being crap because he rents a room in a house and has no control over the Wi-Fi modem/router/system. Only his landlord has control. So there is no wonder that a Wi-Fi that acts up with his ATV 4K also has issues reaching his HomePod mini. We have suggested many alternative to better Wi-Fi, but he doesn't really listen to us...

Or maybe I can’t afford your suggestions.
 
Network drops and reconnects.

Just to clairify that's not a network crash. A crash implies that the router itself died and rebooted.

Seems like a continuation of your previously posted network issues. There are questions there that did not involve any expense (such as providing the router manufacturer and model number) that were never answered.

I have not had the problems in a while. Landlord must have fixed the problem.
