Hi @logansmom,

Thank you for reaching out to the community. I understand you're having some trouble casting MLB games from your phone to your Chromecast after updating your network and password with an Eero booster. I appreciate the information you've shared regarding your ability to still cast YouTube content despite being unable to update the network settings within the Google Home app. I'm happy to assist you.

After updating your network with an Eero booster and a new Wi-Fi password, your Chromecast is likely still trying to connect using your old credentials. Since there isn't a direct 'change network' setting, you will need to factory reset the device and set it up again in the Google Home app using the steps below:

1. Factory reset your Chromecast device:
   • To reset your device, follow the model-specific steps outlined in the article How to factory reset your Chromecast.
2. Set up your Chromecast device in the Google Home app:
   • For Chromecast (3rd gen or older), just follow the steps in the article Set up your Chromecast device (3rd gen or older).
   • If you have a Chromecast with Google TV or a Google TV Streamer (4K) and Voice Remote, just follow the steps in the article Set up Chromecast with Google TV and Voice Remote.
   • Note: Both models follow the same setup steps.

If you encounter any issues while setting up your Chromecast in the Google Home app, both setup articles include a "troubleshooting setup section."

Keep me posted. I'll be waiting for your response.

Regards,

Anders
