No connection over WiFi after installing Google Nest WiFi Pro stations #21441
-
In my home network I use several Sonoff switches that I have flashed with the latest version of Tasmota. Everything worked well until I started using Google Nest WiFi Pro with an update to my network. I can no longer connect to the Sonoff switches. Are there any known problems with Tasmota in combination with Nest WiFi Pro Mesh stations? Does anyone have a solution? |

I've had no issues connecting to Nest Wifi pro, of course having ensured correct and supported Wifi credentials. |

Below the output from Termite terminal, regardless of whether it is powered with 230 volts or via FTDI interface: 00:01:53.785 WIF: Connect to AP1 TIS in mode 11n as tasmota-740BE7-3047... |

Unfortunately a "Reset 3" didn't help, just to be sure I also re-flashed Tasmota to one of the Sonoff switches but that didn't help either :-( |

Maybe I'm making a mistake, in the terminal I enter 192.168.2.254 for the Tasmota/Sonoff Switch as Gateway IP (IPAddress2), that is my modem-router address. But maybe I should provide an IP address of the Nest WiFi Pro there? And if so, how do I find that IP address and is that address static? |

Thanks again for your response! Maybe a bit off-topic for Tasmota, but I'm curious anyway. You wrote that Nest Pro should do all the routing, does this mean that I can set that in the internet modem/router? Or can the Nest Pro only route non-wired traffic? PS: |

Thanks again for your information, as an inexperienced user of the Nest WiFi Pro you helped me a lot. The problems with connecting the Sonoff/Tasmota switches seem to have been solved, the Sonoff Basic with which I initially tested everything seems to be broken because other switches work well straight away. I should have tried another one straight away... I also followed your advice to have the switches obtain an IP address via DHCP. In the Nest WiFi Pro (Home) app it was indeed very easy to reserve an IP address based on the MAC address. |

What I'm doing is not inputting any IP addresses in Tasmota, but let it all be handled via DHCP. If I want a "stable" IP address, I reserve such on the router DHCP. Anyway, setting the gateway IP does not "help" you (more likely harming you), unless you actively want to avoid using DHCP.
When using DHCP, I also have the convenience factor that the Tasmota host name also gets found in DNS lookup, as the router is using dnsmasq to provide DHCP+DNS. Hence I need not really worry about the IP address, even if I do tend to reserve it in DHCP.
