How do I switch out my Fioptics google WiFi with my Google Nest WiFi?

Cincinnati Bell Fioptics charges a monthly fee for the Google WiFi and points. In an effort to lower my costs they said I could purchase my own modem and that the Google Nest was a good choice. 

I purchased one today and tried to install tonight.  It could not connect to my home network because I had unplugged the Google WiFi.  There is only one jack in the house.  I was on the Google Home app on my iPhone and could not figure out a way to do it.  The Nest was plugged into the WiFi jack in the wall. I could create a new network but that doesn’t really help. 

What am I missing?  Cincinnati Bell said it was easy to switch them out. 

thanks for any help!

Just to make sure you got the basics.


I don't work for Google.
