Setup Failed 301014

Another setup, another failure. This time I used a different wifi network and at least managed to get to the point where I'm asked for my AppleID password, but I still get a failed setup, error 301014. Any ideas?

I solved this issue by changing the region of my Apple ID to the US, and also using one same Apple ID for both iCloud and iTunes & App Store. I had this issue previously and on my iPad, when the iCloud account is a foreign account, and the iTunes & App Store account is a US one. After activation, you can change the account setting for the HomePod in the Home App on your device to whichever one you want.
