I've been using Chromecast for about a year and a half now and it was working fine. We installed a second Wi-Fi connection a few weeks ago. Everything was working ok till one day it started flashing the message that Internet was disconnected.
For some reason, Chromecast has now stopped detecting both the connections we have installed, but detects the neighbor's networks without issue. The networks we have do not show up in the list of available networks.
Initially tried to get the Wi-Fi to connect by manually setting up, but after many cycles of entering the network name, security settings and passwords, Chromecast kept returning the message that it could not connect to the network.
Restarted the Wi-Fi router, the television, and Chromecast only to come back to the issue that the networks we have are not being picked up by Chromecast.
With a heavy heart, did a factory reset of Chromecast hoping that it would solve the problem. Alas it is still not detecting our networks but happily displays the networks of the neighbors. Manual setup of network is not working either.
At this moment, the Chromecast device is useless. Given that the device is made of materials only slightly stronger than the packaging it came in, I'm not sure percussive maintenance would help. Does anyone have any idea of what the issue could be and how to resolve it?
