Having f/w problems in another thread, which reminded me about this one, and about the fact that I had given up on homekit.
I just now successfully re-enabled homekit for the thermostat. It was quite straightforward. I don't know what could have been causing the problem when reported. I am now running 1.0.9.28.
Thought I should clean up this thread...

Is the R7000 using the WAN to LAN or LAN to LAN connection with the main host router?

I went back to using the "Internet" port on the R7000 when the genie failed to locate my router on a LAN port.
My ERlite-3 configuration is pretty basic; I have not enabled QOS.
R7000 was in AP mode, so no QOS possible on it.

Any any other routers you can test with to see if same thing happens?
Only other thing to try would be to test the R7000 in a different location, say friend for families place using same AP mode configuration, test both WAN and LAN connections. IF the speed drop is similar then theres something going on with the R7000.

I don't have a spare router right now.
FWIW, erlite configuration is 1 WAN + 2 LAN, with the LAN ports on different subnets. I have not enabled software based switching.
