Great if ya don’t use a nighthawk cm1100 / ac1900
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Google needs to try harder. The setup was not easy. If you have Cox and a router or modem it may not work for you. I had to trying for hours to get it to connect. Do not plug anything else into your modem or router/modem combo other then the coaxial cable from ISP before starting. Make sure modem works and is actived and all lights are green. Then turn on the google router and make sure it’s got a solid white light. THEN connect via google app using an android device. If your an Apple person like me then do it on an iPad cause it doesn’t work on iPhone very well if at all from what I’ve found. Once the google app says it’s connected (took so long to get that part cause of the order of operation above) THEN go ahead and plug the Ethernet cable into your modem/router ONLY. The order is so important here. Do not connect your google router to your modem until you have connected to the android decide or iPad first and it will then tell you to hook up the cable for Ethernet. Pray it will connect to the internet on the first go. For me I had to turn off a lot of settings on my nighthawk ac1900 In the advanced settings. Turn off wifi on your nighthawk too so it’s just a modem and doesn’t interfere with google connecting to each access point. Honestly it’s such a pain and I’m shocked no one talks about it. I would have gone with a nighthawk mesh system had I known it would be this hard to setup with nighthawk modem. Other modems it seems like it’s fine from what I’ve read. Once you get it all working though it’s very nice. Love how deep the coverage is and how smooth it runs. You will have to reboot it every 6months or less just like anything else. Also it’s super annoying how the access points don’t have Ethernet ports. Google could have done better honestly. Now there are better mesh systems out there with these features that make it not worth the price.

Far too EASY too use! Yes, too easy!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off I love my Google Nest items and thought this would be the perfect companion. So first the PROs of the device. Just plug it in. That is it. Just plug it in and you are done. Setup is that easy. Now for the CONs: You have NO control. The unit won't let you change WiFi channels. It simply selects the one it thinks is best for you and does the rest. There is no web page to log into to over ride default settings. It just does the WiFi part for you. You may still have to configure your router. And of course mine opted for Channel 1 and there is no way to change that. The good news is that this thing is POWERFUL!!!! It kicked my neighbors who were using the default of channel 1 clean off. Not only did it kick my neighbors off channel one, it kicked off many of the distant ones as well. Now I am the only one on channel 1 and everyone else is using other channels. So why would I only give it three stars? Well I am a tech guy and I like having the control to put it where I want it and not have it treat me as if I am a newb. That said I have no complaints about the WiFi aspects of it. Google needs to work on the Assistant. It's still not ready for prime time but neither are Siri or Aleaxa. My biggest beef with all of them is that they won't let you change the Assistants name and the documentation for Google does state that it has a problem with dogs named Boo or Boo Boo. No, our dog's name isn't Boo. It's Blue which seems to be close enough. Get with it Google! Fix the Assistant NOW! Google assistant is pretty nice when you get used to speaking slowly. Too bad these are outdated and I need to blow another $399 to upgrade. Oh and yes they are FAST so not sure I need 6E especially now that WiFi 7 is out.

Nice design, works as expected
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the device and how it has more than one functionality. It has speaker abilities and smart options that make it a great addition to my home. One thing I will say is that I enabled the feature that lowers your tv when Google is prompted to speak. When it is operating as it should the sound is raised, reverting to the previous volume. However, often times it will be triggered by a random utterance on tv and the sound will stay low. Not a big issue as I could turn the feature off and it is not the main focus of the Wi-Fi mesh. Most times when devices have a lot of features there will be quirks, so it is not a deal breaker. The Wi-Fi is boosted in my home and can reach all rooms. I only experienced a few issues with the mesh saying the connection was bad via the Google home app, which I believe may be related to my internet service provider.

Superb Wifi Speeds and Coverage
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had the Asus Ac 5300 for about 2 years. Great router for gaming, but doesn't cover the 5,000 sq ft that it advertises. Maybe it does, but my walls are insulated with foam and I was hardly getting a bar in my garage area (2900sq) to connect my 2 garage doors to wifi. I made a decision to buy another Asus router to mesh. I bought the AC 2900 and it really changed the game, but now I was about $500-600 invested. The routers didn't look attractive at all since we moved to a newer modern home so I invested in these tiny Google routers and boy are they a game changer. Now I don't worry about updates or any problems what so ever. I am very glad I finally made the move to this new system after many years with Asus. They are worth every penny and more! I highly recommend these to anyone that wants superior wifi coverage and speeds.

Great Wi-Fi system for entire house.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve MESH system for my my new bigger house. I have a pod on all three house levels placed as centered as I could get. I did add a 4th older pod that adds better Wi-Fi to my garage and patio area on the far side of the house. Very happy after almost 2 years. They are also not distracting with all those antennas as well. They were way to set up. Just know what speed your paying for from the provider and what your devices can handle with their hardware and you won’t be disappointed. Older tech can’t run at Gig speed and are limited to the internal network hardware.

Great for Google Home Households
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Recently moved from a small one-bedroom apartment into a house, so the drop in WiFi signal from one end of the house to the other was surprising. Our internet speeds are 200 Mbps down/ 10 Mbps up and we receive that while in the room with the router. Moving to the other end of the home where we sleep and that signal would drop to around 30 mbps down and 8 Mbps up. After purchasing this kit, the router is still on one side of the home, we have one access point in the middle of the home in our library and another in the primary bedroom and we maintain the 200 Mbps down / 10 Mbps pretty much everywhere in and around the home. We're already a decently heavy Google household so the fact that the access points double as voice assistants is pretty handy as well. The largest con to the Nest Wifi router is the fact that it only has one ethernet port. This is fine, because an 8 port Gigabit Ethernet switch is like $25 at most. But I can see how people who aren't necessarily tech-savvy have no idea what a network switch even is. The other con is the lack of choosing what WiFi network to connect to (whether it be 5 Ghz or 2.4 GHz). For the most part, the automation works well, but there are a few times where my partners desktop will only connect to 2.4 Ghz and it leaves her with a slightly slower connection. Overall kinda minor, as it quickly adjusts, but still an inconvenience. With that being said, I still think this Mesh Router from Nest is the go-to option for those who are already a Google household. So far, the issues presented are minor at best, but I would highly recommend picking up a network switch with this router to ensure you have enough Ethernet ports available.

Q: QuestionDoes this new Google Nest Wifi work with the older Google Wifi? For example can I connect the two so my old Google Wifi acts as the wifi extender?
Asked by kay.
- A:Answer Yes, it can. I found myself in the same situation but felt that leaving the old Google Wi-Fi as the main router was defeating one of the greatest benefits the new Nest Wi-Fi solution offers: much better bandwidth if the Nest Wi-Fi Router is used as the main router. To do this, I Reset the old Google Wi-Fi using an option in the old Google Wi-Fi app - which you have to do if you plan on adding the old units into this new environment. I then added the Nest Wi-Fi Router in as my main router using Google Home and named the network exactly the same as my old network - to include the same password. By calling this new network the same as the old and by using the same password, all your devices will immediately connect to the new network - albeit, with new IP addresses. I then set up the Nest Wi-FI Point using Google Home, followed by adding two of the old Google Wi-Fi units. In doing this, I now have the Nest Router as my high-performance router (much faster than the old one), and a total of 4 devices, i.e. Nest Router, Nest Point, and two of the three Google Wi-Fi units. I didn't need the third so I'm keeping it aside in case one breaks. Still, you can add the new Nest devices into your old network configuration if you want but will miss out on the benefits the new Nest offers.

Q: QuestionWith the new Nest WIFI can the remote units function as an access point, that is be able to plug in an Ethernet cable. If not how can I add a non-wifi device at a remote room. Thanks Chuck
Asked by Chuck.
- A:Answer No — the points no longer have an Ethernet option like the legacy product had.

Q: QuestionWill this work with my AT&T U-verse NVG599 gateway?
Asked by MoorparkGuy.
- A:Answer Yes, Google Nest WiFi can work with your system. But NVG599 is a modem/router combo and you would need to put it in bridge mode or disable its Wi-Fi functionality in order to set up Nest WiFi as your primary router and create a mesh Wi-Fi system throughout your home.

Q: QuestionI have a Netgear wifi router that connected to modem, so if i connect this "google - Nest wifi router with 2 points" to Netgear wifi router but not directly to modem, Will this work ?
Asked by century1721.
- A:Answer I would get rid of the Netgear router and just use the mesh system. I would hook the modem up to the nest Wifi router then place the points appropriately throughout the house.

Q: QuestionHow does it work? We have Spectrum WiFi now and want to switch to Google Nest. Is it as simple as purchasing the 2pack plugging it in and we have WiFi?? Or do we need something more?
Asked by Jose.
This question was asked about the related product: Nest Wifi - Mesh Router (AC2200) and 1 point with Google Assistant - 2 pack
- A:Answer 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.

Q: Questiondoes this cover a 2 story 5000 sq home?
