Nest Wifi is not compatible to work with 3rd party routers to create a mesh network. You can only use Nest Wifi routers/points and Google Wifi together to create a Wi-Fi mesh network. We recommend setting up Nest Wifi as your primary router directly connected to your modem for reliable connection and creating a mesh network. Connecting Nest Wifi router to your current 3rd party router will cause a Double NAT which is the case where each router will have its own private network. Double NAT may cause issues with online gaming and port forwarding. You can keep the 3rd party router in Bridge Mode and then set up Nest Wifi or you can remove the 3rd party router, set up the Nest Wifi as a mesh network with one of them as primary router connected to your modem and connect the 3rd party router to one of Nest Wifi as a switch by disabling its Wi-Fi functionality.
