Hey Dr_Saurabh,

 

Thanks for reaching out — let's see what's going on with your Google Nest Mini.

A few questions — is your Nest Mini within 15 to 20 feet (5 to 6 meters) away from your router? Also, are you getting any message when connecting it to your Wi-Fi?


Give these steps a try:

 

  • Make sure your phone is connected to the same network where you want to connect your Nest Mini.
  • Uninstalling and reinstalling your Google Home app. 
  • If you're using an iOS device, make sure Local Network Access is turned on for the Google Home app and Bluetooth is enabled on your phone.
  • Reboot your router, phone and Nest Mini to refresh the connection.
  • Toggle the Wi-Fi off/on on your set up device. 
  • Reset your Nest Mini.

Looking forward to your response.

 

Best,

Alex
