Google Home will not find any Nest devices

Brian11811 — Wed, 05 Oct 2022 18:44:28 GMT

I am running iOS and using Nest Wi-Fi with 2 access points. I have 2 Nest thermostats, Nest wired doorbell and several smoke alarms.

Google Home only finds the nest mesh, speakers and my tv soundbar. It will not find anything related to Nest. I am fairly sure it is an issue with Nest only since it found my Sony soundbar.

Nest works fine on its own, but it its not recognized in Google Home. I factory reset one thermostat and added the QR code. It goes back to Nest home and nothing happens. I have tried this with the doorbell and I get the same issue.

How do I get Google Home to recognize nest? The factory reset does nothing.

I log into Nest using my google login, not a nest login, and online it says it will just “find them”. It does not.

Also, when I look at Wi-fi on the Google Home app, it shows Nest Hello and thermostat, but does not show in the home app main page.
