If you've already changed to a different Wi-Fi network, try these steps:


1. Open the Google Home app.
2. At the top left, tap Add + > Set up device > New device > set up new devices in
your home.
3. Follow the in-app steps.

If these steps above don’t solve the issue, you’ll need to factory reset your Chromecast, then set it up again using your new Wi-Fi network and password.

Instead of factory resetting your Chromecast, if you're comfortable changing your router settings, you can change your new Wi-Fi network name and password in your router's settings to be the same as the previous ones. Your device should then automatically connect to the Wi-Fi.
