Change WiFi settings

I have a new 5G modem with new WiFi settings.

I've linked my Google Nest Hub Max and a couple of lights to the new WiFi, BUT I cannot update my 2 Nest Cams to it.

Your instructions tell me to:

Open Google Home > Tap & hold Device Tile > Tap Settings > Device Information > Tap WiFi > Forget Network

But WiFi is not shown in Device Information, and I can't find it anywhere else in order to change it.

I don't doubt it's my fault, but I'd sure like some help that works. Please…

You mightt be referencing some instructions for Google Nest's Wi-Fi devices.  Google Nest does not make it easy to change Wi-Fi settings; with the 2nd gen cameras, you usually have to do a factory reset, especially if you did NOT remove the cameras from the Google Home app while still on the old Wi-Fi network.

Thank you. I did a factory reset and started again and that worked.
