My Google doorbell has been working for a few months now, I changed ISP providers recently and got new WiFi equipment. I kept the same WiFi name and passwords, all same. I managed to add my Google speakers and light bulbs, no issues.. I was surprised that the devices didn’t add automatically. But my Google Cameras and my Doorbell, are not able to add. I factory reset the doorbell, and goes through the process, then towards the end of adding it I get the same vague error message “something went wrong, exit setup”

If you kept the same Wi-Fi network (SSID) name and password, I'm not sure why you had to re-add any of your Google Nest devices. When we got a new modem/router a year ago, we kept the same SSID and password, and didn't have to update any Google Nest settings.
Are you still connecting to the exact same Google Nest "home/structure" you were using prior to updating your Wi-Fi?

Same thing happened to me with my nest doorbell when my wifi was replaced (same ID and password). I had to reset it and set it up as if it was a brand new device and had to fiddle around with removing and readding my wifi before it worked.
