I have three nest cameras and while they had been working fine, i recently changed my internet service and cannot figure out how to change the wifi and password on the cameras. Would anyone be able to help me? Thanks in advance

Google Nest makes this challenging, and it depends on which Nest cameras and devices you have. Here is Google Nest Help's page on this:

https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9223711?hl=en

The easiest approach, if you can manage it, is to set your new router's network name (SSID) and password to the same ones used on your old router; then you don't have to try to update your Nest camera settings. That's what we did when we got a new router.

thank you! Ill try that

I am still having issues resolving this problem. Its been a couple of weeks and still cannot resolve. I really did not want to remove the cameras and start over. In my opinion it should be easier than this. There has to be a lot of folks that change internet providers.
