Help with changing ISP and router, dropping google wifi

IDRick1 — Tue, 26 Sep 2023 04:14:47 GMT

Hello, I have a google wifi setup with wifi connection to three computers and two tv's. One tv has Chromecast and the other has Google tv. I am switching to a fiber service which means changing ISP and changing router. Given the age of the google wifi system, I want to drop google wifi mesh and go with a linksys mesh router. Can someone explain how to make this change? I obviously need to start by setting up the new ISP account and router. Once that it done, I can simply search for available networks on my computers and sign into the new network. I don't understand how to change the chromecast settings and drop google home. Please help, I am a senior and just want to watch youtubetv and amazon prime on our tvs and computers. Nothing special.

Fix the Wi-Fi before fixing the Chromecast. I'd factory reset the whole Google Wifi network from within the Google Home app before disconnecting them. See:

About setting up your new Wi-Fi: That's not a Google product related question, so search for guidance with the vendor of the product you end up using.

Chromecast: Factory reset it and set it up from scratch to whatever Wi-Fi solution you end up using. See:
