Setup failed -6722

Unboxed my HomePod, powered it up and heard the chime.


I then eensured two factor authentication, iCloud Keychain and Bluetooth were enabled on my iPhone 7 Plus running iOS 11.2.5. I held my phone near HomePod, tapped setup and after a long wait I get the error “Set-up failed -6722”.


Tried with my iPad and got the same result.



Now what? There’s no support article explaining the message. Not a good first experience.

I was able to get it working - I had to turn off my router's firewall temporarily. I then went into the Home app on my phone and reset HomeKit. This enabled it to complete setup. I have since switched the firewall back on and HomePod is still OK.
