Add Nest Cam (2nd gen) to Google Home

I cannot add my new Nest Cam to the Google Home app. The app asks to create a new Nest-network and than this message pops up: "Problem when connecting to the cloud"

How can I solve this?

Do you have a G-Suite email account as they are not supported.  You have to use a regular old gmail account for Nest Cameras.

Hello everyone,

 

@Aanholt72 thanks for reaching out. Let's go ahead and get it sorted out. To know more about this issue, I'd like to ask some questions: what type of Nest Cameras do you have? How far is it from your WiFi router?

 

Keep us posted.

 

Thanks for answering EmptyNester.

 

Regards,
Emerson
