Connect Chromecast to stronger WiFi

[PhilipS]

I have two WiFi sources in my house, one stronger and the other weaker. I have had to change them around and now want to connect my Chromecast to the stronger WiFi. I cannot figure out how. The instructions I receive include the following:

1. Open the Google Home app .
2. Touch and hold your device's tile.
3. Tap Device information   Wi-Fi  Forget this network.

My problem, when I tap the icon I do not get "Device information" and I cannot find it in home. How do I switch my WiFi connection for my Chromecast?

For a Chromecast just do a factory reset (hold the button until it flashes and restarts, usually 15 seconds or so) , this will allow you to setup the new wifi network.  Generally this is the most pain free way of doing it!
