Small fixes: Google Assistant didn’t respond to specific commands
Google Assistant didn’t respond to “Hey, Google, set a timer.”Over the weekend, my partner and I decided it was finally time to upgrade our Wi-Fi router. We had been contently operating on a relatively ancient OnHub router until we got the warning from Google that it wasas of this coming December. We bitched a bit and then bit that bullet and used a Google-offered discount to purchase a Nest WiFi router and point.
Having decided on a lazy Memorial Day weekend, we thought that Monday would be the perfect day to finally get around to switching from the old router to the new — and it shouldn’t take more than a few minutes, right?I won’t go into the various small issues that we hit before we actually got everything working. But after a few random annoyances, we finally got everything set. We sat back, and my partner asked Google to set a timer for 15 minutes.
Except for the satisfaction I got out of the idea that our new router liked me better, this was a problemHe tried again and got the same response. He asked it for information — that worked fine; asked for the weather — no problem; told the speaker to lower its volume — no response whatsoever. Out of curiosity, I told Google to set a timer. No problem, timer set. It lowered its volume for me as well.
Except for the satisfaction I got out of the idea that our new router liked me better, this was obviously a problem. The Google Support page had the usual “uninstall everything” solution, which we didn’t really want to do.
