Setting up a Gen 1 outdoor camera on a second wifi network

I built a pool house that is about 300 feet from my house where I have my existing WiFi network and cameras.  Since the pool house is too far away for my house WiFi to reach, I had to trench and bury a new cable line to set up a second WiFi network for the pool house.  Can I set up the pool house camera (Gen 1), which is on the second network, with my current Nest app or is something else required?

Is there a reason you don't want to use the same network name as your house, then the camera should automatically connect to Wifi?

David,

I thought that might be confusing and I wasn't sure it would work.  I'm also connecting Sonos speakers involving the same issue .  If I can just use the same network name and password that would be great.
