Recommendation is the extenders should be more than 1 room away from each other or definitely not more than 1200 ft away from the main. I’m not sure about the coverage concrete floors. I installed in open areas and within 1200 ft from each other
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes! Definitely as the 3 pack is meant for homes up to 5000sq ft. They are very powerful.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have 3 stories and tried three other remedies before pulling the trigger. This solved all of my connection issues, and we have tons of stuff always connected, thermostat, 3 ring cameras, garage door, and 3 tvs.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Absolutely! I have three floors in my house, Main, Upstairs and a basement. House is a brick home and wood floors. The router is better than the one from the Internet provider.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.nothing to lose to try it (of course). The three pack gives you a mesh that solves many of the issues you have with a standard router or extender. While not dealing with concrete, I have an older home frame that had dead spots. The GOOGLE WIFI 3-pack put maximum device access in all of my upstairs and downstairs (basement) spaces. It took me 10 minutes to set this up and now I can move between rooms without having to hope my device picks up the next WIFI spot. I think you give it a try. Note the lower cost from the other like products and so far, I can't see what I'd get for paying more.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.yes...I have 6 in my house but that is the limit you should add.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Get rid of any other router or extender in network. Hardwire to modem and kill their WiFi.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It very well could be the answer if you can arrange the Points where the signals can reach each other. Concrete is certainly harder than drywall or wood to penetrate, but surely there's a stairwell or opening between the floors for access? If so, you could position the main Point there, then add the other ones where you need coverage. As long as there's good connectivity between the Points you should see an improvement over what you had before. The important thing is to mount your main one where the signal is the least occluded.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes. We have a very similar set up to what you are describing. We purchased the 3 pack and have 1 on every floor.
