3rd gen Nest Learning Thermostat won't connect to WIFI

My 3rd gen Nest Learning Thermostat has been connected to the wifi without issues for a couple of years, but then a week ago it stopped. I have tried resetting the thermostat. I have rest the wifi settings on the thermostat. However, the thermostat no longer can find my network. All of my other mobile devices in the house are not having this issue. Please help.

I have the exact same problem but with only 5 months of use... did you figure out the solution?

Hi folks,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I'm sorry to hear that you're having an issue with connecting your Nest Thermostat to your Wifi. I'd love to know more about this and I have a few questions:

 

  • What type of Nest Thermostat do you have?
  • How far is your Nest Thermostat from the router?
  • Are you getting any messages when it's looking for your Wifi name?

Looking forward to your response.

 

Thanks,

Edward
