Latest Google Wifi update causing issues, Google working on a fix
August 16, 2025
Some people are complaining that the latest build – 2025-08-23 – is causing their Google Wifi hub to turn into a solid blue state; fortunately, Google has acknowledged this issue and will be releasing a fix in the near future.
Just last year,Google introduced the Google Wifi, its own answer to many of the problems that conventional Wi-Fi routers pose. The mesh system promises better connectivity and subtler aesthetics, and while Google’s router was very well-received at launch,it’s had its own issues. This time, it’s a problem with basic connectivity.
A user named Jacob F took toGoogle’s product forumsto complain that after the most recent update to 2025-08-11, his Google Wifi hub would randomly turn into a solid blue state, indicating connectivity issues. The thread has since gained multiple replies, which show that while not all, a significant number of other Google Wifi users have been affected by this exact same issue. Unfortunately, a hard reset doesn’t seem to solve the problem.
The good news is, however, that Google was able to locate and reproduce the issue and is working on a fix. In the meantime, Google’s Wifi Care Team suggests two workarounds that could help resolve the issue temporarily:
As noted by the team, you can also reach out to their support team (g.co/wificare), “who will be able to provide more deep-dive troubleshooting advice based on the topography of your network.”
