Hello. I just got my new connection and have issue connecting my google home to WiFi. My google home app was able to find the device but couldn't complete the setup. It says "could not communicate with your google home".
Tried removing the device from app, factory reset google home. Still gives out the same error. My other devices such as Hue, my mobile etc had no issue. I'm on 60Mobs plan with total of 5 devices maximum.
Anyone came across this issue? Appreicate the help!
