It stays on the loading screen that says "connecting to Chromecast" then eventually errors out, saying "could not connect to your Chromecast". Is there any way to fix this?</P> Mon, 19 Jan 2026 20:10:46 GMT https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Streaming/Unable-to-connect-first-gen-Chromecast-to-wifi/m-p/784969#M86511 Kg99991 2026-01-19T20:10:46Z https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Streaming/Unable-to-connect-first-gen-Chromecast-to-wifi/m-p/785098#M86517 <P>Hi&nbsp;<a href="https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/846412">@Kg99991</a></P> <P>Try these steps:<BR /><STRONG><A href="https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Streaming/Troubleshoot-setup-Chromecast-Chromecast-with-Google-TV-or-Google-TV/td-p/397523" target="_blank">Troubleshoot setup: Chromecast, Chromecast with Go... - Google Nest Community</A></STRONG></P> Tue, 20 Jan 2026 12:10:37 GMT https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Streaming/Unable-to-connect-first-gen-Chromecast-to-wifi/m-p/785098#M86517 David_K 2026-01-20T12:10:37Z
