I have three nest outdoor cameras. They’ve been functional for the last two years. Suddenly one of the three went off-line. It’s a hardwired system and I cannot find a pin reset button on the camera unit. The Wi-Fi in the house into the other two cameras is functioning perfectly. How can I reset this one single camera so it’s back functioning an online?

Below is a link to Google Nest's instructions for performing a factory reset on a Nest Cam Outdoor:

This did not work. After deleting camera, during the new set up it never found my wifi. The other camera is currently linked to our wifi. I think there is something faulty with this particular camera. It shows it getting power and a flashing blue light.
Help!

No, this did not solve the problem.
After performing the factory reset, the wifi network is not discoverable during the attempt to add back the camera. Doesn’t make sense since another camera on-site is linked and working with wifi. Power is available to camera as I see a flashing blue light on it.
I think the camera is faulty.

Hi, yes I absolutely still need your help. Minutes ago I attempted to reinstall the camera. It had a blue light on it and it’s hardwired. Through the app I reinstall it by scanning the QR code. Then had me connect to the wireless network, which I did. The camera showed connected and the blue light went to green. But no live feed or picture was ever established. I had named the camera “backyard“, but when it came up it was renamed “null”.
I uninstall the camera, rebooted my phone and reinstalled the camera again. This time there is no blue light on it, Nor did it connect to the Wi-Fi.
I’m at a complete loss here. Please call me at 214-274-5758.

I have been able to reconnect it. The blue light came back on and I re-added the camera. So no more assistance is needed. Thank you.
