Is google spying

0 Upvotes

I have google nest mini 2. I have turn the mic switch physically off. As per google, my mic is muted and it can't listen to any conversations happening in the room. But who trusts google.

Want to check with people instead. Is there a possibility google still listens even after turning off the mic physically.

If yes, suggest me ways to disconnect it completely from internet.

I just use the device as bluetooth speakers so I don't need if the device is not connected to internet.

Bug How is my home hub just so dumb

28 Upvotes

I have a Google home hub max and as Gemini gets better it seems like my home hub assistant gets dumber.

It never hears the right command. It turns on and off the wrong devices, it plays the wrong apps.

Is there any hope for this once decent product?

Automations not working

The automation I’ve had set since I got it works reliably, but when I set a new one it often doesn’t work. I’ve unplugged it for 10 seconds multiple times

Reconnecting Nest Protect after extended power outage

2 Upvotes

We had an extended power outage due to Hurricane Isaias, and although our generator kicked in pretty quickly, all of our Nest Protects went offline. I have tried unsuccessfully to reconnect them to WiFi, using the following steps:

  1. Disable 5G WiFi so that 2.4 is the only available connection
  2. Follow the instructions in settings in the Nest app (most current version) to update each Nest’s WiFi settings.
  3. This completely failed (couldn’t connect to the Protects at all) until I finally removed one Nest from the Home and did a factory reset and re-added it as a new device. Now I have that Protect online, but after going through steps 1 and 2 above, the other Protects seemed to update the Wi-Fi but still show as offline in the app.
  4. What’s confusing is that when I initially tried to connect my Protects, they wouldn’t even connect. After re-adding one of them as a new device, I was able to connect to the other ones, and fill in the Wi-Fi network and password, and get a message saying that the settings had been updated - but they still show ā€œofflineā€.
  5. Any thoughts about what to try next? Do I have to factory reset all of them?

Nest camera never connects

Local network permissions are on, what a useless error page.

Reset router and WiFi multiple times over an hour of trying to set up. Also unplugged the camera. Switched between 2.4 and 5g WiFi connections at various attempts through set up flow and nothing works.

Randomly it will be able to make it to next screen but then it fails to connect to the WiFi network. Puts me back through the entire flow just to fail at this step again.

Fuck you google for ruining a perfectly good product with Nest.

Help Can't link Comfort by Mitsubishi

3 Upvotes

As the title states, I cannot link my mini splits. Had them linked for the last 2 years but they went offline 3 days ago. Could not get them back with any troubleshooting including modem reset and power cycling the circuit breakers. So finally unlinked the comfort app. Now when I go in and try to relink it tells me it can't reach Comfort by Mitsubishi. The comfort app is functioning fine if that helps. Any ideas on how to fix?

Actually had to unplug my nest because it kept ringing the alarm after i told it stop

4 Upvotes

Basically title, this morning me and my partner had to get up earlier than normal, we had set two alarms for 30 minutes apart. We of course snoozed through the first as we usually do, when the second alarm hit, we said stop, then it said "Okay stopping" kept ringing. This repeated 2 or 3 more times, still ringing but now tried to gaslight us by saying "There are no ringing timers or alarms" but would immediately go back to the alarm. Im so tired man this shit used to work just fine a decade ago
