Hi smoking10,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I understand your concern about the offline issue of your Nest Protect. The most effective way to restore the connectivity or update the Nest Protect status is to force it to update.

To force update:

  • Press the Nest button once. It should say, "Press to Test."
  • Press and hold the button until the Protect says, "Checking the network."

The LED ring briefly glows green and then turns off when the process is complete.

 

If the Nest Protect can't establish a connection, it says, "Try again later" and displays a yellow LED light:

  • Test in the location of an online unit.
  • Test in another location in the home.
  • Test on another network and/or router.

If all troubleshooting is unsuccessful, assist the customer to do the following to restore the connection:

  • Restart the Nest Protect.
  • Reset the Nest Protect.
  • Pair the Nest Protect again.

Looking forward to your response.

 

Best,

Emerson

Hey smoking10,

Just one quick final check in here since activity has slowed down. We'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, I would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let us know.
