I bought 1 Nest router with 2 Wi-Fi points. Initially everything works fine after setup. Occasionally one of the Wi-Fi points didn’t respond to the hot word “hey Google”. After plugged/unplugged, it had come back working again usually. However, these couple days both of the Wi-Fi points don’t respond to the hot word, and the usually unplug to fix no longer work.
here is what I have tried:
- Unplugged/plugged both router and Wi-Fi points
- turn on/off the mic
- Restart Wi-Fi points
- Restart network
- Factory reset Wi-Fi points
- Factory reset network
- Force quit and reopen Google Home app
- All device has latest firmware updated
After resetting everything and setup like new, the mesh test returned great connection on all points, BUT they still don’t respond to the hot word “hey Google”.
A few things I noticed:
- in Google Home app, the icon sometimes has color and has “play music” button; a few seconds later these color dots disappear along with the button. Looks like it lost connection?? Same goes for the detailed settings of the device. Sometimes the UI display; sometimes it lost connection.
- when hitting the play music button, it says “Unable to play music on this device at the moment”. My Spotify account is connected by the way, and plays just fine on my Google Home speaker.
- tapping on the middle area of the point doesn’t trigger anything.
- the points can respond to hot word while setting up, but it says that the assistant hasn’t been setup yet, so I think the mic works just fine. But after a successful setup, it didn’t respond with any word.
How do I fix this?
