Google Nest doesn't make it easy to update its devices when you install a new Wi-Fi router. The easiest way--if you can manage it--is to set the network name (SSID) and password on your new router to the same values you used on the old router. If you can't do that, you have to work your way through Google Nest's instructions (https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/10165378?hl=en) and hope that nothing goes wrong.

Hey folks,

 

Thanks for reaching out. 

 

Appreciate the assistance MplsCustomer.

 

jerryc436 What's the exact message you're getting when you're connecting your Google Home Mini to the network? Have you tried resetting your Home Mini to its default settings?

 

Best,

Alex
