For months my thermostat worked awesome in my nest ap but last Thu I noticed it was offline. Tried all the troubleshooting including removing it from ap, factory resetting the unit etc. Followed all the protocol. Even downloaded nest ap onto tablet and established a guest network and can't find wifi. Other nest products connect just fine. And all other devices are on wifi no issues.

Originally it was installed with no c wire, bought a Google power connector. No change. Noticed extra wire in cable so removed Google power connector and hooked up a c-wire. Power not the issue.

I'm having the same problem and have done the same things Nothing seems to work. It's winter here and I don't want my pipes to freeze when I go away if this thermostat is not reliable.

I've reset everything numerous times tried factory reseting everything but my phone. Only thing I wonder now is my phone is 5.0ghz and the nest stuff is 2.4ghz. I don't believe that is an issue cuz it's worked for almost a year on my phone until Thu. It happened when I wasn't frigging around with anything.

Yes it did show offline in the ap, but after re setting ot to factory it said remove it completely from ap before trying to re add it to my network. Now it's not on the ap and I can't get it to add to the ap when I try to add a device I the ap. Tried using v bar code and typing in the info. Also tried searching for wifi and manually typing in the info. At least 10 times but I'm sure it's been more than that.

Hi there,
Gotcha. To further check your Nest thermostat's connectivity, connect your Nest Thermostat to a mobile hotspot and let me know if it connects.
Thanks,
Zoe

All of my other nest products and non nest products have not dropped off line at all. Analytics in my Bell home hub says all the connected devices have a wifi status of excellent. No recent changes in my wifi and its in the same room as my modem and router no more than 4 meters away. This thermostat worked fine online for at least 10 months. During trouble shooting I managed to run a c wire as there was an extra wire available so power is not the issue either. Tried all the things it said to do in the troubleshooting guide on line. That's how I decided to run the c wire. Tried rebooting internet and router many times. Put the nest thermostat back to factory settings once as well. Only thing I haven't done has been to change my wifi password to clear all old devices, even the disconnected ones. Someone suggested that to me I just haven't found the time to reestablish all my other wifi devices after doing that. BTW, I have a total of 8 devices 7 on my prime network and 1 on guest. I added the guest one to see if I could get it to join that. No luck. The one item on there is my tablet to make sure that guest network worked. I even downloaded the nest ap onto my tablet and connect through that nest ap and same result. Only error code is the M15 and numerous other TD codes that all say troubleshoot wifi. I've done that so many times I'm tired of it. No other wifi item in the house is having any issues, back door nest lock driveway camera, Google connect unit. Or non nest items either.

I had the same problem. I phoned Google and they are sending me a new thermostat under warranty.

Would you share the number to call Google?
