As a general rule, points work best when they’re no more than two rooms away from each other. For example, if the far end of your house has weak Wi-Fi, don’t put a Wifi point in that exact spot. Instead, put it partway in that direction. Try to place it in an elevated position like on a shelf.
A:AnswerI’m no expert, but there’s a way I think to turn off the WiFi on the Netgear so it’s just a modem. It’s possible there’s an issue with 2 signals but not likely. I have Verizon router and the google and don’t have an issue.
A:AnswerI have a cable modem as well and have one of the points directly connected to the modem and set as the router. the rest of the access points form the mesh.
A:AnswerThe recommendation is that you use the Wi-Fi device within the same country you are purchasing it because of various figuration regulation considerations
A:AnswerMy understanding, this setup requires one of the pucks to have a hard line connection to a modem. Sets that puck up as the router and uses the other pucks as extenders for the mesh connection. The newer Nest option may be different?

A:AnswerThere is a distance limitation, but I can't be sure depending on density of building materials ad other conditions. I have it in our basement and it works well up to the third floor.. Good luck
A:AnswerDepending on the size of the house might be better to have 2
One is good and can support the device with no issues but once you start moving away that's when it really benefits you to have a second on the other side of the house.
