Chromecast 2nd Generation

Hi all,

 

I am having issues connecting to wifi with my Chromecast.  Am casting from iPhone. The Chromecast can see the wifi but won’t connect.  I have done all the checks such as restarting router and resetting Chromecast but it just won’t work. It was working before and now it’s not.  On the iPhone, when setting up through the app, it says it’s connected but in the TV it says check your internet connection.  Any ideas?  Is it just a faulty Chromecast or has someone experienced this before? Thank you

Hi folks,

 

Thanks for reaching out. Sorry to hear that you are having an issue reconnecting your Chromecast to the network. Let's check on this further.

 

Has there been any changes on the router settings or network connection? When did the issue start?

 

Give these steps a try:

  • Make sure the Chromecast device is within 15 feet of the setup device and the Wi-Fi router.
  • Reboot the Chromecast device
  • Check router settings. (AP isolation must be disabled and UPnP must be enabled).
  • Reboot router again.
  • Turn on Local network access for the Google Home app. Here's how: Privacy > Local Network > Google Home app
  • Use mobile hotspot to set up Chromecast (To isolate the issue).
  • Do another factory reset. 

Let me know how it goes.

 

Thanks,

Jennifer

None of these suggestions work nor does doing a factory reset. With so many having the same problems there must be a bigger issue. Apple won’t help so hopefully Google will provide a fix.
