Yes. We had the same 1 router/1 point and had a weak spot in the house. Added the extra point and now signal is great everywhere. House is 2800 sq ft.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.All Nest Wifi and Google Wifi devices are compatible to create a mesh system. You can simply add additional Wifi points to your existing Google Nest Wifi mesh system. It doesn't matter whether you add a Nest Wifi router or a point. The difference is the coverage and that a Nwst Wifi point has a Google Assistant built-in. We recommend a maximum of 6 Wifi points in a single mesh setup including the primary router. For an estimate of how much Wi-Fi coverage you’ll get with Nest Wifi and a guide to how many Wifi points you need check here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7182840
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You only need one router. The router is tied to your modem then you can add several points around the house, and even outside.
