I have already been using Google home for my Nest Doorbell and Floodlight camera, with a degree of success after adding four Mesh Wifi Extenders.</P><P>Sadly I am having great difficulty in adding the Battery Nest camera. Ive tried at least a dozen times using different options to "add Device" and it continually fails to connect. I have factory reset the camera which initially shows a white diminishing light, then connect it to magnetic holder and connect the charge lead all as described, it then shows a green light.</P><P>In all I have wasted over 4 hours having tried all options (reboot server - switch on/off airplane mode - restart device and so on). There is some doubt over should I first connect the new camera to Google Nest before Adding new camera directly into Google Home. Intelligent it is not!</P> Sat, 02 Nov 2024 09:44:03 GMT Harriflex16 2024-11-02T09:44:03Z https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Cameras-and-Doorbells/Problems-installing-additional-camera-to-Google-Home/m-p/653260#M103828 <P>My son has moved house and given me his two Google outdoor cameras.

I discovered that the reset button on the Camera body needed to be pressed for 15 seconds in order to create a full Factory reset. Having discovered this I was then able to add a third camera to google Home.<BR />A great pity that the suggested “intelligent installation’ hadn’t pointed this feature out!</P> Sat, 02 Nov 2024 15:14:44 GMT https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Cameras-and-Doorbells/Problems-installing-additional-camera-to-Google-Home/m-p/653294#M103832 Harriflex16 2024-11-02T15:14:44Z
