Google home is a great system if you want an easy way to automate your home and connect everything together. Also the Google home app is easy to use and supports a lot of automations and devices are almost added automatically. So when it all works so easy you might expect that if you have to replace a defective Wifi unit it’s super easy to remove that device…..you probably already guessed it, it’s not.

I tried almost everything (except of course delete the home and rebuild everything) but whatever I tried there was no way to remove the old device. At one point I just gave up and accepted that the ghost of my defective Wifi device would haunt me forever.
