Live Video Unavailable. The Camera may be unreachable or saving battery

I have 2 other cameras (set of 3 bought together) and I am now getting this message on one of the three cameras: Live Video Unavailable. The Camera may be unreachable or saving battery.

I have done a factory restart and followed all other advice given on these forums.  
Any other ideas on how to fix this problem.

Thanks!

Here for the same chronic problem.  It seems this is a Nest Doorbell issue that will never go away.

Google Nest now uses that "Live Video Unavailable. The Camera may be unreachable or saving battery" message on ANY camera that Google Nest's servers cannot reach at that moment, regardless of whether the camera has a battery or not.  We have gotten that message on rare occasions on several of our comments, including recently on one of our 1st gen wired Google Nest Outdoor Cameras.  We have NEVER done a factory reset on any of them; we just try later and it works. If the message is persistent, it could be due to Wi-Fi issues.
