One of my HomePods is connecting to the neighbors WIFI-Network all the time, restarting doesn't change anything and I can't change the WIFI-Network manually in the app. Why isn't apple able to give the user the possibility to change the HomePods Wifi-network without any circumstances??? I don't get it. I've neither entered the other WIFIs password nor did setup anything regards that.

Apple doesn't want users changing settings in anything. They don't feel users are smart enough to use what they paid for, except in very specific "apple" ways, and are annoyed their computers need sysadmins sometimes, but are working to be rid of them too.
