New Orbi Router Now Google Home Can't see Hue or Chromcast
I purchased a new Netgear Orbi router to replace an old Cisco and now I've lost some hue and chromcast functionality that used to work. My Google home is picking up wifi and works but when I try to...
I agree with Pathfinder - try doing a fresh setup on the devices, even though the new Orbi network credentials are the same.
I'm using an Orbi with multiple Google Homes (all of which always connect on 5Ghz for me), as well as a SmartThings hub and Hue bridge. I have the ST hub and Hue bridge connected via ethernet to my Orbi satellite, and I've thankfully had no issues at all with any of those various "static" connections.
Maintaing a connection while roaming around the house with my iPhone has become a bigger problem for me lately, but hopefully that will get solved in the next Orbi firmware release :)
Good luck!
