I got my next learning thermostat back in October of 2022. The Wi-Fi connectivity worked for about a month, and then since then, there’s been a w5 error. I have tried more than everything to get it to work. Resetting the thermostat, removing the account and readding it (which now I can’t use the app at all because it won’t connect to WiFi) resetting my router and then restarting the thermostat. Every troubleshooting method that is listed I have tried. And now it’s even worse. Now it won’t start actually heating or cooling unless I stand in front of it. I have to periodically go stand in front of it to remind it to kick it because it’s too cold or too hot. I would like to request a replacement. I have already filled out a form requesting it but have heard nothing. Thank you

When you go to your Nest Thermostat, wake it up, go to SETTINGS > NETWORK. Take a picture and post it here please. This is what mine looks like:

While I appreciate the assistance, I just need a replacement at this point. It’s ridiculous. I’ve tried everything. Also it doesn’t even show me the networks anymore. Just says there’s a w5 error.

What is the battery power level of your Nest Thermostat ?
