    My house is about 1200 sq ft and I get full speed and coverage in every room with just one pod. I haven't had any issues as of yet. The set up was super easy. I think just about anyone can install this router.

    DOES NOT PROVIDE WIFI SPEEDS ABOVE 1 GB. If you’re like me and looking for a reliable mesh WiFi network that was top of the line and capable of your new high speed internet (2 or 5 GBps) this product is WRONG FOR YOU. I made this mistake. It’s a $400 mistake. Don’t be like me. Do your research. There are much better wifi products out there for mesh networks at speeds over 1 GB.

      Hi there, JoseG. We appreciate your feedback. We regret to hear your experience with the connectivity of your Nest Wifi Pro. If your modem is a modem/router combo, we recommend disabling the Wi-Fi functionality of the combo or putting it in Bridge mode to avoid Double NAT as it may cause connectivity issues. When you enable bridge mode on your ISP combo, it'll turn off its NAT and allow your Wifi device to be the sole device that performs NAT. If you have 2 separate ISP devices, a modem and router, turn off and unplug the ISP-provided router, then connect your modem directly to your Nest Wifi Pro.

      Please let us know if additional help is needed by visiting us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hi there, James. We hear your concern about getting a more consistent connection. Here’s some solutions to help ensure your device is performing at its best:

      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 wifi 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/6246489?hl=en&ref_topic=9832041&sjid=1438060090272717156-NC#zippy=;

      Hi there, Cable. Sorry you're running into slower speeds with the Nest Wifi Pro. There could be a few things impacting your connection — here are some ways to improve this:

      1. Your device is far from your 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.

    Great for an elderly person looking to get hi-speed wifi through their 1000 sq ft home. For anyone else, no so great. The Google home app is very limited when it comes to features and settings. The mesh connection is less than desirable. Advertised as wifi 6 the speeds are very inconsistent and your devices will constantly be switching between 2.4 and 5ghz bands as theres no way to lock it in leaving you aggravated and cheated if you have any connection greater than 54mbps. I was fooled by the pro wording on the box. Don’t be like me.

    Huge waste of money. Do not purchase. I’m literally getting 1/2 the speeds I used to get on my old Google mesh network. I have Fios and pay for 2gb. I’m lucky if I get 400 over 300 with these. On my old Google mesh network I would get 900 over 800 WiFi speeds.

      Hello there, ChrisN. Thanks for sharing your feedback, and we appreciate that you find the Nest Wifi Pro a good option for your budget. We’re sorry to hear its performance has not exceeded your expectations.

      We suggest checking the placement of your Wi-Fi router and point, which 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, where they can see each other with a clear line of sight. Barriers like heavy furniture and walls made of thick concrete or brick can affect Wi-Fi performance. You can also try the following steps that may help:
      - Move the connected device closer to your Wifi router or point.
      - Try to place it in an elevated position like on a shelf.
      - 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.

    Returned after a long 3hrs of troubleshooting on the phone with Google support trying to get these setup. Google Home App would not complete after hours of troubleshooting, resetting, restarting, and trying 20xs. Tried all three units in the box, none would complete. Multiple errors and when we finally got past the error messages the devices would not read the ethernet cable connection to the modem. Very frustrating, especially since we have been using an older version of google mesh for years and were excited to upgrade to the pro. Plugged our old mesh in and set back up in minutes no problem. Called our service provide they confirmed capability, our services were working and no issues with modem.
