Easy setup, good coverage and it doesn't have to look like a stealth aircraft.

For anyone thinking about whether you should buy this Google Wi-fi Pro 6e or the Eero Pro 6e, I will tell you which one is the best. I had the experience and opportunity to use both and let's begin.
I used these Google Wi-fi Pro 6e (3 pack) for about 2 months and even though you get wifi the range is not too good. I was thinking it was on my end until I decided to buy the Eero Pro 6e and instantly my internet range, and performance skyrocketed. Using Google strictly on Wi-fi my downloads were about 18mbps, Using Google as a wired mesh connection my downloads were 20mbps. Not very good at all either way. Now, switching to Eero Pro 6e my wi-fi speeds were around 184mbps, When I tried the wired mesh connection with Eero Pro 6e my speeds went to 526mbps almost triple my speeds.
The range I was getting using Google was I could walk out my door outside and that's it. Using Eero I can go down the street around the block and then some before I lose connection. I get full wifi bars on all my devices using Eero and no one complained since getting the Eero. I have over 5,000 square feet of home and I used 4 Eero Pro 6e. I am really enjoying and glad I got the eeros now.
Google Wifi pro 6e is okay and it's not bad and cheaper than the Eero but Eero pro 6e is by far a better product than Google. I used them both and can confidently say which one is better.

Great improvement over the last version. The setup was super easy and reliability is great. Have not had any hiccups since setup. Plays well with all of our devices, new and old. Great backwards compatibility.

Great product. I was getting a weak connection upstairs with my old WiFi. So, I did some research online, then went in to Best Buy and a blue shirt guy helped me decide on this one. Total Tech came and set it up for me (not sure I would have been able to hook it up on my own). I have one plugged in downstairs at the cable modem, and one plugged in upstairs in my home office. Now I'm getting the strong, secure WiFi connection I need. These look really nice, too.

Nest wifi pro is a good router but nothing drastically different from Nest wifi. Speeds will be similar if you are connecting 1 to the modem router and others as wifi points. On the downside no Google home speakers in any of the points. wifi 6e speeds are better but depends on if one can really take advantage of same.
Hi there, Anurag. Thanks for the feedback. We’re glad that you find the Nest Wifi Pro good, but we’re sorry to learn that your experience has not exceeded your expectations. We also hear your concern about the speaker functionality, however, after thorough research and feedback from customers and retail partners, we’ve learned users appreciate a dedicated networking system. Removing the Google Assistant speaker allows us to expand our reach and offer Nest Wifi Pro at a more affordable price point.
The placement of your Wi-Fi router and points is vital to have reliable Wi-Fi throughout your home. 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 part way in that direction. Try to place it in an elevated position like on a shelf.
You can also try these steps below that may help: - Move the connected device closer to your Wifi router or point. - Repositioning the points to avoid obstructions like walls, doors, and aquariums can improve performance. - Make sure all unused devices are off and not draining bandwidth with large downloads. - Check for possible sources of interference such as microwave ovens, refrigerators or other equipment. - Run a mesh test to confirm placement of your Wifi points.

I got a new router because I wanted my smart home devices to be connected to a 2.5 gig network and my gaming console and laptop and other media devices to be on the 5 gig channel. But the router does not allow any real Admin modification. There is no way you can choose to apply a specific network speed for a specific device.
Hi there, wriddhi. Sorry to see the Nest Wifi Pro wasn’t quite what you were looking for. We’d be happy to help answer any questions or concerns you may have about the device and make sure you’re getting the best experience you can — don’t hesitate to reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Was well worth the purchase. Eliminates my dead WiFi zones.

Very easy to setup and maintain. I set these up for my Mom as she was having to stand in 1 place in her house to talk on the phone. Now with the Nest and wifi calling, her phone works everywhere.

Wish I got this a long time ago. I have seen a huge difference with my WiFi speed. I can finally connect multiple things to my WiFi and my stream speed is not effective. I will recommend this to anyone over the other mesh products out there.

This is my second set as I replaced the old one I’ve had for 8 years. I recently installed a security system with multiple cameras in my home and needed to increase my wi-if muscle/strength to accommodate the additional devices that were crowding my network. The Google Mesh did the job perfectly and for my needs the two pods were enough. Great purchase and better product.

This system makes sure I have strong network anywhere in my house and outside my house. The range is extremely large and set up is as easy as plugging it in.
