Nest thermostat wifi connect issue. After installing doorbell camera

I've had the nest thermostat for 6 years. I installed a doorbell camera and began having connection issues with the thermostat. I had to install a new transformer for the doorbell. I now have connection to the wifi just for the thermostat now.

Hi Darklord,

 

Thanks for reaching out and we're sorry for the delay.

 

Could you tell us more details of what's happening after you've installed your Nest doorbell? Do you see any error messages from the thermostat?

 

I hope to hear from you very soon.

 

Best regards,

Ryan

I'm not sure I can give anymore info. My nest thermostat is hard wired to my home as is my doorbell cam. I had to replace the voltage regulator to my doorbell in the process. My thermostat keeps saying disconnected from wifi.

Hi Darklord,

 

Thanks for your reply and I am sorry for the delay.

 

The Nest thermostat will be disconnected from the Wi-Fi for a couple of reasons. First, if the battery is not getting enough power to charged, it will be disconnected from the Wi-Fi to conserve it. Second, the location of your thermostat. There are electronic devices that might be the cause of interference. Another thing is the common wire (C wire). Do you have a C wire connected to your thermostat? 

You could check this link to know more about your Nest thermostat battery status and how to manage it.

 

I hope it helps.

 

Best,

Ryan
