I can see my Lutron lights when connected to my network, when outside of the network on cellular the lamps show *no response* in the iOS Home app.
My thermostat still shows when accessing outside the network so I think the Home app is working correctly.
A little more information, I am using the plug in lamp dimmer P-PKG1P-WH and the smart bridge L-BDG2-WH.Quote:

That was exactly the problem, my Apple TV was asleep. I turned off sleep as you did and all is working.
Thank you.
Good tip--thanks!
Can someone explain to me how you use an iPad or apple tv to perform as a hub to gain access to the lighting when you're outside your home network?Quote:

Apologies for resurrecting a long dead thread but I have the exact same issue as the original poster. I have an Apple TV 4K as my HomeKit hub and I have it set to Never Sleep. When I am home I can see all of my devices, both Lutron and all of my other WIFI devices, and I can control them with either Home app on my MacBook Pro and my iPhone 11 Pro. However, whenever I leave my house and try to access them remotely, only the WIFI devices are shown to be active and all of my Lutron devices are shown as "No Response". I can control the other WIFI devices like my thermostat remotely, but I cannot control any of my Lutron devices. Does anyone else know what else I can try to get my devices to be "seen" remotely?
