I have 3 smoke detectors. I changed modem and router. I go to Settings but nothing says DEVICE OPTIONS. The app's instructions don't reflect what I'ms seeing. Now what do I do to change my modem and password settings?

Does this Google Nest Help topic have what you need?

I'm afraid not. The key word SETTINGS is just not available on my Nest App. Thanks.

This doesn't work?
In the Google Nest app, on the home screen, tap on Settings (the small gear at the top of the screen).
Then select your Nest Protect.
Then select Device Options.
Then select Wi-Fi connection.
Tap Next. The system should attempt to connect to your Nest Protect and start looking for Wi-Fi networks.
Select your Wi-Fi network and enter the password.
If this doesn't work, you could use these instructions to remove your Nest Protects from the Google Nest app and do a factory reset. After that, try reinstalling.

I'm afraid not. I can see no Device Options on my screen, there fore I can't get to Wi-Fi connection. But thanks for the effort.

I contacted support and chatted with two staff, one for two hours and one for one hour. Neither one of them could fix the problem, although the second one assured me it was fixed. Despite seemingly endless interaction on a chat, my three smoke detectors are NOT properly connected. They had been nicely connected for 4 years but no longer. My guess is that the Google takeover and the interaction between the Nest app and the Google Home app has destroyed the product. A simple process is now so complex that even the staff can's solve a simple connection problem.
