Hello,

I've been using my RT-AC58U router for a few years now, without any issue. A couple of months back I've checked for firmware updates, and updated the firmware to version 3.0.0.4.382_52504. Since then I've been having issue with my Chromecast and Google Home, which were working fine before the update:
- I cannot connect my Chromecast to the Wifi at all. I have reseted it, and tried to reconnect it via the Google Home app, but I'm always getting the following error: "Something went wrong. Home TV may be set up, but we could not communicate with it from your iPhone... "
- My Google home is connected to the internet, but I cannot communicate with it from my phone:
  • If I give it the command "Ok Google, play some music", everything works as expected.
  • If I open the Youtube Music app from my iPhone, and try to cast the music from there, there is an infinite spinner and the music never plays. This was working as expected before.

Some notes:
- I have both a 2.4 GHz and a 5 GHz network on the router, but I'm trying to connect the Google devices to the 2.4 one, as I believe this is the only supported one.
- I have tried to disable Set AP Isolated in both 2.4 and 5 networks, as I've read that this might help, but unfortunately there was no change.

Any help is appreciated
