Hey Fastest,

That certainly hasn't been easy for you — let's see what's going on.

Make sure your devices are connected to the same network and assigned to the same home structure. Try rebooting your Vera devices, Google Home and router to refresh the connection. Once done, try saying "OK Google, sync my devices"

Hope this helps.

Best,

Alex

Hello there,

To make sure, are you using a private home network? If so, do you have a dual-band router? Try reinstalling your Google Home app. Resetting your Google Home speaker might help too.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Hi

  • Yes its private home network with dual band router. I tried reinstall and restting but still the same. All other apps and alexa working fine with vera , google home still shows devices offline not responding.

Hi Fastest,

Let's try these additional steps, try creating a new home structure and move your Google Home and Vera devices there. Let us know if you'll get the same result.

Hey there,

Thanks for the photos. To make sure, do you have the Vera Controller or Vera Smarter Home Control action? Check if your Vera Firmware version is 7.29 and above. Also, since you have a dual-band router, do they have a separate name and password?

Best,

Hello there,

Could you give these additional steps a try:

1. Go to https://goo.gle/3VMKebU
2. Log in with your account
3. Connect to your controller
4. Go to "Apps", then "My apps"
5. Find the "Google Home" plugin and install it

NOTE: You should do this for each controller you have under your account

If the issue persists, try separating your network into two different networks with different names and passwords.
