Routers with this capability promote stronger, faster wireless signals as well as increase Wi-Fi coverage by reducing interference and eliminating dead zones.)
- Number of Wi-Fi Satellites Included: 2 (Quantity of Wi-Fi satellite modules/nodes for a Wi-Fi Mesh System that come with the product.)
- Wi-Fi Speed: 2.2 gigabits per second (The maximum rate at which data is transferred between a network device and wireless router.)
- Works With: Google Assistant, Arlo, Wink, Hue, Nest, Ring, SmartThings (Compatible with or able to be connected to other smart devices or applications.)
- General
- Brand: Google
- Model Number: GA01426-US
- Product Name: Nest Wifi - Mesh Router (AC2200) and 1 point with Google Assistant - 2 pack
- Color: Mist
- Security
- Data Encryption: false
- Firewall Type: NAT (The method the firewall uses to filter and process data to increase network security, primarily by blocking malicious traffic requests while allowing legitimate traffic through.)
- Security Features: Trusted Platform Module, WPA3 encryption, automatic security updates
- Parental Controls: true (Allows user to block unwanted content, signals, channels, networks, etc. from being received or accessed.)
- Network
- Band Technology: Dual (Refers to the number of frequency bands used to wirelessly transmit an internet signal. For example, dual-band devices may use one 2.4 and one 5 GHz band, while tri-band devices may use one 2.4 and two 5 GHz bands. Multiple bands also provide more flexibility for designating connected devices to specific band use.)
- Ethernet Standard: 10/100/1000 (Each standard is a variation of the IEEE 802.3 set of computer networking technologies known as Ethernet. New versions evolved to include higher bandwidth, different physical media, and other new and improved features. Standards are often denoted by speeds (in Megabits per second). For example, a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port transmits at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps).)
- Frequency Band: 2.4 GHz, 5.0 GHz, 6.0 GHz (Bands may be grouped into categories such as low- and high-band VHF (Very High Frequency), low- and high-band UHF (Ultra High Frequency), or certain frequency channels (measured in MHz or GHz). Generally, higher frequencies transmit information faster but have shorter range than lower frequencies.)
- Wireless Networking Standard: Wi-Fi 5 (The wireless networking standard used by the device. Each iteration of the standard developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance corresponds to an existing IEEE 802.11 protocol; for example, standard 802.11ac (or AC) is termed Wi-Fi 5. Refers specifically to the standard the device is designed to use, but ultimately determines product interoperability and backward compatibility including previous versions.)
- Wireless Standard: AC (The wireless networking protocol used by the device. Each iteration of the protocol is based on the 802.11 standard developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards Association. Denoted by letters following 802.11 (802.11a, 802.11ac, etc.), each version, published in alphabetical order, encompasses all previous versions.)
- Input/Output Technology: MU-MIMO (Multi-user Multiple-Input Multiple Output) (Generally, multiple-input multiple-output communication technologies allow for more signals to be transmitted at a single time, which can improve the device's overall performance.)
- Number of 2.4Ghz Streams: 1 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. Because the 2.4 GHz band is used to transmit wireless signals to a wide variety of devices, there is often high amounts of traffic on that stream. But with multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 2.4 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a desktop computer, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that use more data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Number of 5.0Ghz Streams: 1 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. The 5.0 GHz band provides high speed, short-range data transmission and typically has less traffic than the 2.4 GHz band. With multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 5.0 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a streaming media player, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that need less data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Wi-Fi Mesh System: true (A single wireless network consisting of a main router (connected directly to a modem) that connects to a series of satellite modules or nodes placed around the home. Routers with this capability promote stronger, faster wireless signals as well as increase Wi-Fi coverage by reducing interference and eliminating dead zones.)
- Number of Wi-Fi Satellites Included: 2 (Quantity of Wi-Fi satellite modules/nodes for a Wi-Fi Mesh System that come with the product.)
- Number of Wi-Fi Satellites Supported: 2 (Maximum quantity of Wi-Fi satellite modules/nodes that are able to be connected to the main router in a Wi-Fi Mesh System.)
- Certifications Listings & Approvals
- ENERGY STAR Certified: false (Devices carrying the ENERGY STAR service mark, such as computer products and peripherals, kitchen appliances, and other products, generally use 20% to 30% less energy than required by federal standards.)
- Features
- App Compatible: true (The product can be connected to a program or software application on a mobile device, which then receives collected data from the product.)
- App Name: Google Home app
- Beamforming: true (A signal processing technique that enables a router to focus a Wi-Fi signal in a specific direction. The router determines where a connected device in the network is located and projects a stronger signal in that specific direction. This can result in faster and higher quality data transfer as well as reduced signal interference.)

Product Manuals
A: Yes and no. If your modem is easily accessible, has an empty port AND a close by electrical outlet and there is an outlet where you want to locate the hub - you could be up and running in 10 - 15 minutes. It took me about 30 minutes as I needed a ladder, had reroute a long extension cord to reach an almost inaccessible outlet for the main orb, and find an asthetically suitable location with an outlet for the second. Our than that it is super easy. Plug in the network cable and power, load an app on your phone, name the new network and password, answer some simple questions, push a button and wait a few minutes and you're up and running. Our house is over 3300 square feet, two stories and the property is long. We now have very strong wifi throughout the house and property. Works very well for us.
A: Absolutely! Google Nest Wifi system is Wi-Fi mesh system. You can add multiple routers or points to create a mesh network and increase the coverage. We recommend connecting a maximum of 5 routers/points in a single mesh setup for a strong and reliable network.
A: Yes, the Nest Wifi can work with your AT&T modem/router combo. Nest Wifi replaces the current router you have and must be plugged into the modem provided by your ISP. If you want to use the combo, we recommend putting your combo in Bridge mode to avoid a Double NAT as it may cause connection issues due to the creation of 2 private networks.
Q: Is this 2 pack Google Nest Wifi 1st or 2nd generation?
A: Second generation that lost the physical connection port. Not a good change. Yes the idea is WIFI boost, but when using it in one spot heavily, first generation had a direct connection port I miss.
Q: how many ports are on the main piece that I can hardwire into?
A: 1 Lan port. You can use an unmanaged switch. But i have this and the connection constantly drops. I do not recommend
Q: What is the Electro-Magnetic Emission level from the Mesh Router (AC2200)?
A: Nest Wifi meets the U.S. Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) requirements for exposure to radio waves and is designed and manufactured not to exceed the FCC's emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy. To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, a distance of at least 25.5 cm should be maintained between the antenna of this device and persons during device operation. This device must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter
A: The router is white and the wifi point is mist.
Q: Do you need a router to use this to have wifi
A: Nest Wifi is a router that broadcasts Wi-Fi to any Wi-Fi capable device. It replaces your traditional router and is compatible with most Internet Service Providers. Google Wifi needs to be connected directly to a modem using an Ethernet cable to set it up and get an internet connection.
