Google home can't find Chromecast on network

Douglc76 — Sun, 21 Jul 2024 02:52:31 GMT

Recently upgraded my network to Nest pro router. I had to migrate the network to a new Google home account. Now my Chromecast won't show up to cast to. I factory reset the Chromecast hoping reconnecting to the new network and adding it to new home would fix it. It went through the whole setup, then I got a message that the Chromecast was connected to Wi-Fi but couldn't be found. Thoughts?

Hi @Douglc76,

Thanks for posting here in the community. I'm sorry to hear your Chromecast is connected to the Wi-Fi network but couldn't be found. Help's here!

To better assist you, I'd like to ask a few questions:

Which Chromecast device do you have?
How far is the Chromecast from the Wi-Fi router?
Did you get an error message?
Are there many devices connected to the router?

Keep me posted.

Best regards,

Melany
