But my router (bought in Europe) channel setting was on Auto and it switched to free 12 channel after power outage.Īfter I selected other relatively free channel below 12 manually - Nest devices reconnected to 2.4Ghz again immediately. But after I looked at WiFi band analyzer app - I saw that my 2.4Ghz SSID was using 12 channel, which my Nest devices (bought in USA) probably can’t use because of regional restrictions (12, 13 and 14 control channels are restricted for USA). Looking at router settings did not show me any possible problems at first. So it looks like something was changed in my 2.4Ghz setup and broke Nest connection to it. And factory resetting devices did not fixed this issue. My neighbors 2.4Ghz was identified by Nest also. And every other device can see 2.4Ghz without any difficulties. I've got exactly the same issue with Nest Audio and Nest Mini (both gen 2). But I figured what went wrong at least in my case.Īfter the power outage I noticed that my Nest devices can’t see my 2.4Ghz SSID, but can see 5Ghz one.

I looked around the web and I don’t seem to be the only one experiencing those issues But after a power failure, it becomes a nightmare, as only a factory reset solves the problem and even that is non-trivial and very time consuming (lots of failure to connect). The Google Nest Wifi router and its two Nest Wifi points work great long as there is power. Your Google Home App often fails to connect to the devices, display some visual indications that it is “working” only to display a few minutes later that it cannot connect (“Problem connecting”). The only option that works is to factory reset the device (each time the power goes off). This is extremely frustrating… It take me easily 1 to 2 hours to get Google Nest Wifi router to reconnect to the internet. The problem is with Google Nest Wifi router…ģ. They confirm that the internet was fine, and I validated by connecting a computer with an ethernet cable directly to the internet modem. At one point, I even contacted my internet provider to enquire if the problem could be on their side. Wait… Reconnect Google Nest Wifi router… Wait… It is never able to reconnect. Switch off everything… Wait… Reconnect internet modem…. I have tried everything I could find to have Google Nest Wifi router reconnect to the internet when I am at home. This is not so great when we have several Nest cameras and we pay for a Nest Aware subscription to record while we are away.Ģ. Although, to be fair, once when I was on vacations for several weeks, I noticed that Google Nest Wifi router re-connected to the internet by itself after about one week.
