Ok here's what i did to finally get it to work without a second router. Thanks for all the help but i don't think this is the cleanest solution 1. Internet Connectivity > Access Point Names > Wait for page to load and Turn "ÖFF" the enable button below Access Point Names tab. Although the Access point Names shows OFF, the second tab below shows "ON" and turning it OFF was required 2. Set up a guest station. Only turned on 2.4 GHz 3. Reset all my google home devices and set it up again connecting to this new guest station Wifi Could group the speakers which i couldn't do previously when the speakers worked on the wifi. Not sure why it doesn't play well with the general Wifi but i'm hoping that is fixed so that i'm not currently managing three separate wifi connections. ... View more

yes @rrajagopal, found the screenshot that someone shared and did that. But did that help you connect to your Google devices from your phone? Or did you also have to use another router as an access point?   I didn't use a second router. i will try rebooting my router to check if it works. Hoping there's a firmware update soon ...

Thank you @Mark14 and agree, the problem isn't solved yet. This was working fine a few weeks ago until an auto firmware update i assume. What i think we require 1. A step by step guide for an intermediate solution until everything works again 2. A full update from the tech team to get this working as before I also noticed that previously i couldn't sync two speakers to play music together but i'm not sure if this is also a router issue.   Suggesting people move back to NBN is how you lose customers Reference links  https://community.tpg.com.au/t5/Broadband-Internet/All-About-TPG-Home-Wireless-Broadband/m-p/95154#M36823 https://community.tpg.com.au/t5/Modems-and-Devices/Google-speakers-stop-working-after-upgrade-from-NBN-to-5G/td-p/120823 https://community.tpg.com.au/t5/Broadband-Internet/5G-home-broadband-network-problems-Sagemcom-5866T/m-p/127523 https://community.tpg.com.au/t5/Modems-and-Devices/google-chromecast-doesnt-work-with-sagemcom-5g-wifi-router/td-p/129184/highlight/false/page/2 I'm sure there are plenty more ...

@david64 wrote: @reh06 . Using a spare router as an access point was one way to attach wifi devices which were being refused by the Sagemcom. There is the suggestion above by nicolasoz; apparently has the effect of disabling AP isolation. Also, another suggestion involves using a guest network. Thanks David, i have disabled AP isolation and tried a guest network. Can confirm both don't work ... View more

So the only solution for now is to get a second router and set that up as an Access Point? ugh such a pain. This was working abolutely fine until a few days ago and i have no idea why. Did not even update the firmware. Let's all continue to call customer care so they prioritise this fix. Thanks all. i'm going to wait till theres's another solution since i don't have a spare router. ... View more
