My network is working fine, but when I try to add another point, by plugging it to the power, it doesn't have any connection and the app isn't able to detect it as a "device nearby".
I have 3 nests, and had them for around 6 years. I bought them together In the same country, and it doesn't seem that one of them has an issue, because when I create a new network, I can set any one of them to be the router and they all work fine.
The problem, which I couldn't find anyone with it is that the points aren't even ready to be connected, so the app can't detect them.

The point(s) you are trying to connect are factory reset and ready?
Try connecting it by ethernet cable (WAN port) to the primary (LAN port) while setting it up. Disconnect ethernet cable if success.
Or try from a different phone running the Google Home app.

did this but kept getting “something went wrong” message. Have been trying for weeks to reconnect points to no avail. I do not want to risk the connection of the router point but am beyond frustrated with the lack of connection. Worked flawlessly…until it didn’t and now won’t.

Hi Edward, I end up calling google and we tried everything and they told me that if the last thing we did wasn’t helpful then it was rubbish, so I bought another one to replace that one. I hope that one will work!!
thanks for asking!
