Ways to fix Google Nest Mini not connecting to WiFi network

The first and best measure is to restart or reboot the internet router. There could sometimes be issues either with your internet or your router. All you need to do is unplug the power source for the router and wait for a few minutes. After about 2 minutes or so, you can plug it back and let the Nest mini connect to it. If it’s connected, then the issue has been resolved. If not, then you need to check for issues in the Google Nest Mini.
Reboot your Google Home Mini
If you suspect that there is an issue with your Google Nest Mini, then it’s possible that due to a bug, the speaker might be refusing to connect to your Wifi network.

These are the simple yet easy-to-follow troubleshooting methods that you can follow when your Google Nest Mini simply refuses to connect to your wifi network.
