PSA: If your WiFi-based devices show "no response", the Discovery app should be one of the first troubleshooting tools you use

This has been posted several times, but it bears repeating. When your WiFi based devices show no response, load this app and go to hap_tcp. If they aren't listed there, you most likely have mDNS issues and should look to your router/wifi for HomeKit issues.

Edit to add: This applies to HomeKit over WiFi, not Matter over WiFi.
