Outdoor Nest cams failed to come back on-line after power outage

[yevets]

Hi,

We just had a power outage and I am unable to get any of my 3 outdoor Nest Cams to work. I have tried unplugging and re-plugging them and have removed them and tried re-installing. Nothing works. None of the cams have the status light showing so I am wondering if they are getting power. I confirmed that all out the outlets they plug into are working. Is it possible all three power adapters blew from the outage?

Easy: On your cell phone go to settings, Wi-Fi, turn it off and on again. That's it.

Thanks, I should have mentioned that I tried that first with no luck. After tgat I unpkugged snd re-plugged, then tried removing and reinstalling. Nothing worked.

Hey there,

Thank you for bringing up the concern you're experiencing, I would love to look into this further for you. The first troubleshooting step that I'd recommend would be to restart your device. This process should keep all your settings, and reconnect it to the same Wi-Fi network. This is helpful if it ever freezes, has connection problems, or isn't working normally.

Best regards,
Brad

Thanks Brad. I tried that already and it did not help. As I mentioned in my original post, I do not see a status light on any of my three Nest outdoor cams. I am wondering it the power outage damaged the power adapters.
