Nest Wifi Pro Mesh set up

[Joyfully]

I just purchased the Nest Wifi Pro 6e and I have the main unit all set but it is not finding the other points. Is this something to do with bluetooth. I can't seem to find bluetooth in my settings to see if it is activated. Any other ideas?

Thanks!

See following Google Support guide for "Troubleshoot setup with iOS":

Make sure the device used for the setup process with the Google Home app have no VPN enabled/ connected; not any 3rd party product, nor the "Apple iCloud Private Relay" ( https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT212614 ).

Make sure the Google Home app has been granted permission for "local network access" ( https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/7172427?hl=en ).

While connected to the Google Wifi/ Nest Wifi wireless network with your iPhone or iPad and doing work with the Google Home app, make sure following settings is disabled:
• "HTTP Proxy" ( https://www.expressvpn.com/support/troubleshooting/disable-proxy-safari/#ios ).
• "Limit IP Address Tracking".
• "Private IP Address", also known as "MAC randomization" ( https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/security/secb9cb3140c/web ).

When adding additional points: IPv6 on Nest Wifi has caused strange problems lately. One thing to try is to disable IPv6 ( https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/6361450?hl=en ), add new Nest Wifi unit, then leave IPv6 off or enable it again.

If nothing of the above works, try from a different iOS, iPadOS or Android device, using the Google Home app with the same Google account, or a Google account that has been granted access to the specific Google Home home ( https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9155535?hl=en ).

I have the exact same scenario. When I try to install the point, it gets pretty far through the installation process. Then there is the following message: Request Failed - Your request could not be completed. Anyone have any ideas about this?

Hi Abi - I spent quite a while going through troubleshooting with Levin - it was not successful. I ask that you replace this Google point and I'll return the other one to you.

Thanks,
