Sorry if this is not the right place for my post, but I couldn't see another category that suits


 


I've got a chrome cast that I've had for about 3 years but I've not used it recently


thanks to Vodafone we got the 'Deco'? wifi things  last year and have set them up and we have a new wifi password.


However in the weekend I tried to use the chrome cast but I couldn't get it to cast - I think it might be because the chrome cast was set up with the old wifi password?


 


Does anyone know if this would be the case - and if the chrome cast needs to be 'reset' (and how to reset it if necessary)


 


thanks in advance

if you changed the wifi parameters, you would need to get chromecast to join that.

 

they all have a button, with different expected led behaviour depending on which model you have: Factory reset your Chromecast.
