If you changed your Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password, you should know that Google Nest does not make it easy to change the Wi-Fi settings in our Google Nest devices. This is Google Nest's recommendation when getting a new Wi-Fi router/modem: "The simplest fix for most Nest products is to update your home network so that the network name (SSID) and password are the same as before. This will usually work even if you’ve purchased a new Wi-Fi router as long as the manufacturer settings are the same." (https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9223711?hl=en#zippy=%2Ctry-the-same-network-name-and-password)

If you must change your Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password, Google Nest's strategy (see the above link) is for you to remove each device in the Google Home app while you are still on the old Wi-Fi, and then do a factory reset, and then re-add each device in the Google Home app on the new Wi-Fi. Yes, it's a pain.

Hey hmangat,

Thanks for getting back to us. I'd like to confirm, did you change the Wi-Fi name and password of your router? If so, what's the status light of your Nest Cam Outdoor? Could you check if the cameras are still showing in the Google Home app? If so, let's remove it from the app.

Open the app, then tap Settings > Remove device > Confirm.

Check out this link for additional information.

Thanks,

Archie
