Google Home Can't

Google Home couldn't find my 1st gen Chromecast device. I went to settings (iPhone) and connected directly to it from available Wi-Fi networks and it found it and connected. It (Google Home) then had me choose a Wi-Fi network. It did not find my primary 5G network so I chose the secondary 2G and that worked. And my phone automatically went back to my 5G network.

Hi PFWilson,

 

Thanks for posting here in the Google Nest Community. The Chromecast 1st Gen won’t detect/connect to the 5 GHz network. Your phone or other devices should be on the same network as the Chromecast device in order for you to cast to it. Let us know if you have any questions.

 

Cheers,

Kimy
