I've bought THREE 3rd gen Nest Thermostats. 1 has worked for almost 9 months. The other 2 lasted around 6 months and now 2 months. The same issue with both. The thermostat cannot see any available networks. I've been through all available troubleshooting, but the issue persists. At this point, I think the quality of Nest products is questionable.
Any suggestions on a fix?

I am going through the same thing since middle of last week. Suddenly after one year my thermostat no longer recognizes my network and I have done EVERY possible way to troubleshoot. I read that it is a glitch in that particular generation and that Nest does offer a free replacement so I have a post on this thread as well asking for it. I am waiting on a response. Best of luck with your issue.

Hi there,
Thanks for reaching out. I'm sorry for the trouble this may have caused you. I'd love to help. Could you please go to your thermostats Quick View menu, then highlight the gear icon for Settings and check for any messages or code available there. Let me know what it is.
Best,
Jenelyn

Hi Mark,
For me, I went through all known steps to fix it as follows which did not work:
Did a Restart of connection
Restarted my router (no other components are having WiFi issues)
Checked battery life which seemed fine, but put it on charged a few hours anyway
Restarted to Factory Reset
Verified Technical Information was where it should be (pings and signal strength) both fine
Thermostat gives me an error stating: nest.com/m15
App on cell gives me an error stating: TD004 (0.65) which means thermostat went to sleep
Also, almost all of the time the face of the thermostat does not come on and light up. I have to push and wind it a few seconds for it to light up so not sure what is going on with that. Very annoying though! Please let me know your thoughts based on my above response to your post. Thanks- Steve G.

The error code is w5. I've reset the modem/router. I've restarted the thermostat. Thing is, this isn't my first go around with Nest malfunctioning. I've kept the original thermostat and will reinstall it until I can purchase a different brand to replace my Nest thermostats.

They sure didn't offer me a replacement option. I bought the thermostat well before we built our house so they wouldn't stand behind it. Seems to me a good way to sell product to have them malfunction after 3-6 months...
