If you've already changed to a different Wi-Fi network, try these steps:

  1. Open the Google Home app.
  2. At the top left, tap Add + > Set up device > New device > set up new devices in your home.
  3. Follow the in-app steps.

If these steps above don’t solve the issue, you’ll need to factory reset your speaker or display, then set it up again using your new Wi-Fi network and password.

Instead of factory resetting your speaker or display, if you're comfortable changing your router settings, you can change your new Wi-Fi network name and password in your router's settings to be the same as the previous ones. Your device should then automatically connect to the Wi-Fi.

Thanks for your reply.  Currently have 1 mini working, but Google smart speaker and 1 mini will not complete connecting. Have tried Hard reset of both.  I had to replace my phone, so using Samsung Galaxy S22 5G.

All units are > 6 years old, so ? don't know if phone doesn't like old devices

Hi MDMeyers,

 

Thanks for the update. To make sure, have you tried setting it up using a different phone? Checking your phone's system update might help too.
