Q: QuestionWill the Google Nest Wifi AC2200 mesh system work with the AT&T U-verse NVG589 router box? How do I change it so the AC2200 becomes the main WIFI over the U-verse? Thanks,

Asked 5 years ago by Vinny.

This question was asked about the related product: Nest Wifi - Mesh Router (AC2200) and 1 point with Google Assistant - 2 pack - Snow

• A:Answer Yes, Nest Wifi can work with the NVG589 router box. Since you have a modem/router combo, here's what you can do to set it up: - Put your NVG589 router box in Bridge mode by turning off its Wi-Fi functionality to avoid a Double NAT. If you need help with it, we recommend contacting your service provider. - Wire your Nest Wifi router to the modem/router combo via Ethernet cable.

Q: QuestionI have a netgear combo modem/router. Would I still use this unit?

Asked 5 years ago by Queenie.

This question was asked about the related product: Nest Wifi - Mesh Router (AC2200) and 1 point with Google Assistant - 2 pack - Snow

• A:Answer Nest Wifi works with most internet services. If you have a modem and router combo, you may run into a double NAT (Network Address Translation) as both your combo and Nest Wifi router will be broadcasting their own private networks with identical SSID and password. We recommend disabling the Wi-Fi functionality of your combo to avoid this issue. You can find more info here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/6277579

Q: QuestionI have AT&T Uverse. Is this a simple plug and play swap with AT&T WAP that is connected to the gateway?

Asked 5 years ago by RagnarsAxe.

• A:Answer Nest Wifi replaces your current router to provide reliable Wi-Fi coverage throughout your home. It needs to be connected to your modem via the WAN port with an Ethernet cable.
