Controller connects to my Netgear nighthawk router but won't connect to phone or chromcast w Google tv, I get this message error, any ideas please?
@Prozac1972 are you on Comcast Xfinity by any chance? I saw a similar issue from someone playing through that network. Is switching network an option? If yes, might be worth a shot to try and see if it resolves the issue.
Also I found this reddit post which suggest plugging the controller into a power source for at least 5 seconds, and another person having similar luck. Perhaps you can give it a shot?

I'm on EE 4g modem (content locks removed) and Netgear nighthawk WiFi, previous 5g modem from Three posed no issues to controller connection. This will go down as one other bug and nothing that can be done, I understand Google is really not putting any money in development any longer and it shows, I'm spending more time troubleshooting that playing. Just wish Stadia enabled connection over bluetooth!
Btw thanks for the reply.
@Prozac1972 I definitely understand the frustration and I would also rather spend the time playing games rather than troubleshooting (I spend a good amount of my time troubleshooting at work, so definitely don't want to do it while playing games lol)
In any case, you can submit your feedback to the Stadia team through the app so they're aware of the situation.
