Change Wi-Fi network name

To rename your Nest Wifi or Google Wifi network name:

  1. Open the Google Home app .
  2. Tap Favourites  and then Wi-Fi  and then Settings .
  3. Enter a new network name.
  4. Tap Save.
  • Network names must be between 1 and 31 characters.
  • Make sure that there isn't an accidental space at the beginning or end of your network name.

Reuse an older network name and password

If you reuse a network name and password from an old router, you won't have to reconnect devices that were previously on the network.

Note: If your old router is still broadcasting a Wi-Fi network, you may observe odd behaviour because some devices will be connected to your Wi-Fi point and others connected to your older router. You can enable Bridge mode on your old router to fix this.
