Google Home was manufactured for a different Country

job
Community Member

I bought my Google Home 1st gen a few years ago in Canada. It works fine and has no issues. However, I recently moved to Spain and while trying to connect it to the wifi it prompts the message: "Your Google Home was manufactured for a different country, and may not be compatible with your Wi-Fi network."

Is there a way to solve this issue?

Thanks.

Hi Job,

That message is usually because some countries have different regulations on which 2.4ghz channels can be used. It shouldn't be a problem in Spain I think. Have you factory reset the device and set it up again for the new WiFi network you are now using?
