I'm trying to set up the new Chrome cast with TV to my old Sony TV(KDL-40W4500 ) (not smart tv) but failed to connect to wifi/internet. I have already 2 Google home max connected on the same network. Following are the steps I followed so far.
Able to connect the chrome cast to my phone.
Issue is setting up the wifi:
Setup with Google home on Android phone. Error: Connection problem during setup.
Manual setup using the remote on the chromecast. Error : Cannot connect to the internet.
Disabling 2.4 GHZ band and only connected to 5 GHZ.
Before spending time doing anything else, do a factory reset of the Chromecast and try one more time to connect to the internet once that is done. Also make sure your 5ghz channel is LOWER than 149 , as there are issues with higher channels currently.

Thank you very much for the reply. I was able to finally resolve the issue. I had to update a few settings in my firewall and all the functionality started to work like a charm.
It looks like Bach was able to fix their issue, so I'm locking the thread. As always, feel free to make a new thread if you have any more questions or concerns.
