Yes. It does this when you first set them up also

Nest Support · Answer

If you want to check the signal strength, you can do a mesh test using the Google Home app. For detailed instructions, you can follow the link below:

Not really. There are three apps which make it very confusing. The app will say the current strength and ask you to move the wifi point to near the router. Once you move, you run the wifi test again and wait for few mins to see the strength of wifi. You repeat this process until you are satisfied with wifi speed. While it all sounds manageable, the whole process is excruciatingly time taking.

Yes. It will show the signal strength on your phone app

The Nest app allows you to test your mesh connection strength and tells you how strong the signals are on the extender units in terms of Great/Good/Poor (something like that - it's not displayed in numbers). It would then suggest you move any extender not getting a "Great" signal closer to the main. I'd prefer a quantifiable measurement but, for me, "Great" has always been great.
