    Stinks - constant disconnection

    So angry that I upgraded to these from the generation 1 next but was told I had to so outside camera’s would work - WRONG!!! And now too late I can’t return them because we were trying to figure out why they weren’t working. Probably is if you move from room to room on a WiFi device they sometimes disconnect - not good at passing off to the next nest. Also, working remotely at desk that isn’t moving would lag multiple times a day (hardly ever happened with the gen1 nest. So moved back to the gen1 next and surprise the outside camera still work and I’m stuck with these since I missed the return timeframe. Totally unhappy with this purchase!

      Hi there, aMiller. It's unfortunate to hear that you encountered this issue with your Nest Wifi Pro. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

      We understand that upgrading to the new Nest Wifi Pro can be challenging. However, we recommend trying out some helpful steps below that may be able to help you with your concern:
      - Remove any wired backhaul connection you have with your Nest Wifi Pro devices.
      - Remove any wired accessory devices connected to your Nest WiFi Pro devices, like printers, storage devices, etc.
      - If only a few devices aren't working, try restarting your Wi-Fi devices that are disconnected. Depending on the device, a restart might be required to connect.
      - If you're planning to recreate a new Wi-Fi 6E network using Nest Wifi Pro in your existing home structure in the Google Home app, it's important to factory reset your old Wi-Fi 5 network using the app to remove the existing Wi-Fi network. Then you can set up a Nest Wifi Pro network.

      If you still experience the same disconnection issue with your Nest Wifi Pro, you may reach out to our support team for further assistance with your support concerns using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    I love that this item has security and even parental controls for my little ones they spend to much time on the internet that i can set up times for them and it will cut it off for their specific devices which i like, this is also secure and safe, I would recommend taking a look at these if you have an google ecosystem in your house this works great for cameras outside of the house

    This system is fine. If you want something super simple to get you decent Wi-Fi coverage for larger homes, you’ll probably be okay with these. However, you have to set these up using the Google Home app. Again, if you’re already in the Google ecosystem, that might not be a big deal, but I’m really, really not a fan of the trend that seems to be manufacturers forcing router configuration to be handled on a phone app. The apps are designed for simplicity, not rich features with advanced (not even that advanced) options. I’d like this system a lot more if I could have more control over things like forcing Ethernet backhaul, disabling or splitting wireless bands, DHCP reservations, etc. Overall, it’s fine - but it’s not lightning fast and it’s not very customizable.

      Hi there, RobertKingston. Thanks for sharing your views on the new Nest Wifi Pro.

    The mesh is terrible to be honest. Had to disconnect one of of the extension pods due to severe lag between them — over 800ms lag time while trying to game on it. Definitely requires Ethernet direct connection between pods which defeats the whole purpose of a mesh.

      Hi there, StevenL. Sorry to hear you're running into lag with the Nest wifi Pro.. There could be a few things impacting your connection — here’s some suggestions to improve your speed:

      1. Your device is far from your Wifi router: often moving your device closer to your router or point will result in improved speeds.
      2. Building materials and other objects may slow your connection: if possible, try to use your device within a clear line of sight to your router or point.
      3. Some devices do not support the faster Wi-Fi standards: speed is dependent on both the router or point and the device that is connected to it. If you have an older device, it’s likely it won’t support the latest standards for the fastest speeds.

      For more information, here’s a link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7578264?hl=en&ref_topic=7620336&sjid=14351523150742169093-NC
