Hi Corinna,

Thank you for reaching out. I'm sorry to hear that you're having an issue with setting up your Google Nest WiFi. I'd love to know more about this, and I have a few questions:

What is the light status of the Google Nest WiFi router?
Is this the first time you're trying to set it up?
Have you tried doing a factory reset on the Google Nest router?

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,

Edward
