My Nest Mini speaker frequently disconnects from WiFi.

When Assistant says "can't reach the internet" my only success has been to unplug the speaker in order to reestablish WiFi connection. I have also disconnected the Nest router with no effect. In addition, I have used the reset button on the speaker, which of course meant I had to "add a new device" and personalize the settings again.

Hi I have the same problem with one of my nest minis. Every week I need to reconnect and reconfigure at least a couple of times. I already tried factory reset, remove/add in Home app and the issue continues.

Hi Ai,

 

I have the similar issue as my Nest Mini keeps on disconnecting from the network. I have split my router signal to only connect to 2.4ghz but the Nest Mini still disconnects.

 

I have factory restarted the device and I still get the problem and require to setup the device each time it disconnects.

 

Thanks for looking into this and I can provide additional information on my Nest Mini if required.

What good is a case if you guys won't update it or respond to it no matter what?  I keep replying to the thread asking for updates and I haven't heard anything for 4 weeks on my original case or at all since you supposedly submitted it this one.

Is this really the best you can do Google? I've been waiting over 4 weeks now and you guys won't even reply to my case thread. You open to second one and you won't reply there either. What the heck? Meanwhile I have two paperweights that do nothing but tell me they can't connect to Wi-Fi. Please respond ASAP This is getting ridiculous and I'm about ready to leave the Google ecosystem all together and switch over to Alexa.

UK version, router ASUS, 5m from router, config as stereo speaker.

Constantly disconnected from wi-fi, yesterday was sooo pis$#@$#d.
I restart both speakers, play stream from YouTube music, switch off screen my phone, go to sleep. 5 minut later "Problem with the speaker", one was disconnected from the wi-fi!! How I can get refund from Google?
Maybe a class action plus compensation for all?

I have the same problem with all speakers disconnecting and reconnecting. 
This means long delay in getting camera feed from doorbell and often problems playing music to some speakers randomly.

The devices sometimes disconnect and reconnect several times per minute.

I have had this problem for several weeks now. I did not have the problem at start and I have not changed anything in my network when the problem appeared. 
I have restarted everything including routers and mesh devices, but no improvement.

A strange behavior is that it can be stable for a while and then stat to flicker.
Another strange thing is that once I have a stream going (Music or Video), the network connection to involved devices are stable (e a music and video streams play without interruption).

Hi Jake,

The problem is intermittent and I am right now not playing on them. 
I will come back when it reappears and try to find a pattern to it. The connection right now is stable, but getting picture from the doorbell to the display is disappointingly slow.

I have two nest minis and both have started behaving increasingly erratic, disconnecting several times a week and requiring full reset to work again. Super frustrating.

After recent updates, all speakers have stopped working. All I hear is "Hmm something gone wrong" or "something about glitch". NOTHING else. I have tried rebooting, hard reset several times, unfortunately no change. The pair is still disconnected, but also does not work, and on top of that all the single ones stopped working as well. I have never seen a worse product in my life, sold by such a large company. If anyone starts a class action suit, please join me.
