Home Pod Mini connection problem fixed
After following the instructions, I was able to get my network set up however I needed a different PW to meet Netgears requirments. I kept the same Network name as before to keep things simple. Turns out, that created a problem with Apple being able to transfer my network information via blutooth to new devises. I reset the entire system but this time created a NEW network name and NEW PW. I had already reset all my Home Pod MINIs per youtubs tutorials. Since both the newtwork name and pw were diffent, I no longer had an issure reconnecting everything to my new network.

Glad you figured it out and thank you for letting us know.
Please mark your thread as solved so others will know.
Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
