I am not sure that I understand your hint. For initial setup homey set a small AcessPoint with SSID HomeySetup. Homey (which not support GHz band ) set AccessPoint on 2,4 Ghz Network. For that it is not need for any other network infrastructure. Macbook (and any other client Android or IOS) only need to recognize and use that AP. All that devices support 2.4GHz AP and there are no reason to that behavior. After initialization Homey need some network AP with 2,4 Ghz radio. My problem is that Mac and Android and iOS cannot view Homey AP. ---

Not a red ring? Are automatic flows running? Do you see Homey in your router ? ---
