Is there a simple way to change the wifi network on all the devices in your "Home"? I have tried repeatedly, to no avail. There has to be a better way to do this other then factory reset all the devices and point them to a new wifi network one at a time. Please help,

No, unfortunately. The steps to change Wi-Fi network vary by device:
Connect Google Nest or Home devices to a new Wi-Fi network - Google Nest Help
If you're comfortable changing your router's settings, an easier option would be to change the Wi-Fi network name and password to the same as before. Your devices should then automatically connect.

I did receive davidking's answer. I am a network engineer by trade. I cannot believe that google nest audio has not deployed an easier fix to wifi association with their products other than "Factory resetting" each one at a time. I also realize that I can name the new wifi SSID the same as the old wifi SSID. There are many reasons that this may not work. One would be if you have a mesh connection between devices on the network. Most every other wifi device on the market allows for configurations via a GUI.
