Why won’t my nest cameras work anymore.

[Martidob]

I have recently changed broadband providers and my perfectly good nest cameras won’t work anymore? Can anyone help?

Google Nest does not make it easy to change Wi-Fi settings on most Google Nest devices, so their first recommendation when getting a new router/modem is to set the network name (SSID) and password to the same values as on the old router/modem. That's what we did when we got a new router/modem, and we didn't have to update any of our Google Nest devices.

If that's not possible, then Google Nest's process is to remove each Google Nest device from the Google Nest app or Google Home app while still on your old Wi-Fi network, then do a factory reset, and then reinstall on the new Wi-Fi network. Failing to do the first step can cause problems that MAY be able to be resolved with assistance from Support.

Our doorbell disconnected this morning and all the other smart items in the house reconnected but the doorbell will not connect even though it's completely charged I don't know what to do to fix it but if anybody else has the same problem I'd be happy to hear how you fixed it
