Hi Dazza,

 

Thanks for posting and I apologize for the delayed response. Do you still need help with this issue? If so, could you tell us what mobile device you are using to complete the setup? Has the Chromecast Ultra been connected to this network before? Are there any changes in your WiFi router?

 

Give these steps a try:

  1. Make sure the Chromecast is within 15-20 feet away from the setup device and WiFi router.
  2. If you are using an iOS device, you must turn on the local network access for the Google Home app.
  3. Close and reopen the Google Home app.
  4. Reboot your Chromecast Ultra, router and mobile device.

Let me know how it goes.

 

Thanks,

Jennifer
