Setting up homekit with a wireless access point
I live in a two story house. We have a router on the main floor and a wireless access point upstairs.
I recently set up a smart light switch on the main floor and it is connected to the router. When I am on the main floor, my iPhone is connected to the router and I can manage the light switch through homekit. However, when I am upstairs, my phone automatically connects to the access point and the status of the light switch changes to "no response ".
I am assuming that this is because when I am upstairs, I am on a different network than the light switch. Is there a way I can set up homekit or my wireless access point so I can seamlessly use homekit to manage the light switch no matter where I am in my house?
