Nest Hello not connecting to Google Home

I have a problem connecting my Nest Hello to my google home. 

Previously I added my Nest Doorbell to my Google Home through the Nest app.
I recently had to hard reset my router and now I am unable to connect my doorbell to my Google Home, either directly or via the router. 

I have tried

- A factory reset of the doorbell

- To set up my doorbell through the Nest app (which works), but if I then try to add the doorbell to my Google Home the in-app login for Nest says the combination of my username/password is incorrect (although I know it is actually not)

- To set up the doorbell (after reset) directly through the Google Home app: nothing happens when I scan the QR code and if I use the code it is unable to connect to the doorbell

Any ideas how to fix this issue?

For future readers, I have managed to fix the problem although I am not completely sure what worked exactly. 

In other topics it was suggested to add another house and then deleted to force the Nest and Google Home app to reconnect. Also I have changed my Nest app settings as suggested in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWduuPoC7hA

After that the Nest Hello has spontaneously appeared in my Google Home without the need to add anything manually.
