Cannot connect to HomeKit accessories (lights etc.) remotely (home network works). I've had this issue with my old AppleTV 4K and had replaced it. It had been working but now does not! This past 6 months HomeKit has been so unreliable! WTF Apple.
Apple TV 4K, tvOS 14
Have you tried restarting or resetting the hub?

I've been down that road and will wait a bit. I've turned off HomeKit on the AppleTV 4K and then turned it on. I had noticed that The Home Hub is listed as disconnected remotely but connected when I'm at home.
Wait a sec, It just started working again, let's see how stable it is... gonna wait a few days before... now the accessories are saying 'updating' and the 'Home Hub, once again shows disconnected.
I'm still going to wait a few days before contacting support. I appreciate the link!

Seems to be working this morning. I'm providing status updates to help anyone who is in a similar situation.
Happy to hear it's working...for now.
Same issue - all 7 hubs shows they are in standby
yup, this happened before and was solved (?) by replacing the hub... typically a software update has some behavioral issues and, yes there was an update 14.0.0 to 14.0.1. It stopped working before I updated to 14.0.1 and then when I got home updated to tvOS 14.0.1, then restarted... when I switch to LTE from home network I cannot connect (works when I'm home).
The HomeKit used to be super stable but lately not so much
