Just be sure to use the same network name and password as the old router and based on my experience so far I believe it will connect seemlessly without any hassle. I don't have your exact situation but I have a bunch of different smart home devices and they all connected automatically without having to reconfigure everything.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes. You will need to set up and reconfigure your spy cameras and security system sensors in order to connect to the new Nest Wifi Pro. Nest Wifi Pro isn't backwards compatible with earlier generations of Nest Wifi or Google Wifi mesh systems. It is a Wi-Fi 6E device, uses the 6 GHz band to make connections and form its mesh network which allows faster, more reliable connections to occur and for data to be transferred within your network more smoothly.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you retain your original WiFi public name and your original password, then you will NOT need to change anything with your endpoints. Your endpoints will connect to the same name and password as before. However, it's always a good chance to re-enumerate all of the devices on your network, and to consider segregating some devices you might not trust onto the "public" side of the router.
