I don't think I trust Zigbee anymore. My 17 Hue devices, mostly bulbs, use Zigbee's protocol. Every morning all my devices work, but as they day goes on more and more are "not responding" and when I try to ask Siri to turn off all the lights, sometimes as many as 14 of 17 lights aren't responding. I'm desperate to find something that works because I love HomeKit/Siri... when it works. Any suggestions? I'm guessing it's interference from the neighbors in my building. Or it could be my Hue Bridge failing, which I've rebooted and that doesn't change anything.

How robust is your Wi-Fi. Do you need or use a mesh Wi-Fi?  

We originally split our mesh Wi-Fi into two separate channels but found some devices with continually disconnect. When we set up our Wi-Fi with one single channel it allowed 2.4 and 5 GHz to respectively connect to the appropriate channel in this solved a lot of connectivity issues in our home.

A recent update to their app has left my Wemo devices totally useless - they worked fine for years. I repeatedly get a warning about the app being unable to connect to the internet. After contacting support, they said "new users are required to create an account through the app" - they made no mention of how they broke existing user's functionality. Terrible service and highly misguided decision to break the app and provide no insight to the user as to why.
