Wi-Fi device is showing off-line in Home at when they’re not off-line

I am having issues where Wi-Fi devices show off-line or speakers show off-line in the home app when they are not actually off-line.

Referred to this post and it’s basically the same issue and I’ve done everything except fill out the form in this thread.

What else can be done to resolve it? Just like the user in the other thread I actually have no issues with the devices only that in the home app, it shows them off-line even when they’re not off-line.

Thanks

This happens off and on with us. The Google Home app will report that one or two of our Nest Hubs is offline, or on a different Wi-Fi network, when they are in fact online, on our one and only one Wi-Fi network, and working. After closing and restarting the Google Home app (sometimes multiple times), the Google Home app will eventually report the status of the Nest Hub correctly. This is a LONG-standing issue.

This happens to me every so often, I just unplug the device and plug it in again, and everything shows online like normal. As mentioned in the other post this is a long stanging issue.

Hi folks,

 

I'm sorry to hear that your Nest devices are showing as offline on your Home app. May I know what type of Nest speakers/displays you have? How far are they from your router? Do you happen to know if you have a band steering frequency containing a dual band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz? It would help a lot if you could do a sequential reboot by unplugging the power cord from your router/modem followed by your Nest devices. Plug them back in starting with your router/modem. Restarting your phone might also help since all these devices rely heavily on your Wi-Fi settings.

 

Tell us how it goes.

 

Best,

Dan
