Don’t buy it from BB
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Did not deliver on time and did not refund despite request
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot exactly worth it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty decent product. However, they do not cover the actual area they say they do, and if you have walls, like all houses, this almost pushes them to a need for every room type of ordeal. Would have returned if I noticed best buys crappy return policy was so short.

Posted .Hi, illmindofTwizZz! Thanks for sharing your experience with the Nest Wifi Pro. You can add multiple Wifi points depending on your needs. Ideally, one Nest Wifi Pro can cover up to 2,200 sqft. But where they are placed, the layout of your house, and physical obstructions like furniture can impact the total coverage. For an estimate of how much Wi-Fi coverage you’ll get with the Nest Wifi Pro and a guide to how many Wifi points you need check here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7182840

Disappointed Google Home user -buy a Eero instead
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was so excited about getting the new Nest Wi-Fi Pro. I've used Google home products for several years and I couldn't wait to add this to my home setup. Sadly it was a huge disappointment. I went from having wired connections over 900Mb downloads on an older Orbi router to 220Mb (Speed test done via Fast.com and from the router built in Speed test. All test were done by a wired connection). I reported the issue and saw that Google was releasing a software update to address speed issue. However, the software update didn't help. I factory reset the device and still no change in performance. I went back to Bestbuy and exchange the Nest Pro (2Pack) for an Eero Pro 6e (2pack). I'm back to 900+ speeds and the Eero has a 2.5 Gb Ethernet port. Google really missed on this product for me. I really wish I had a different opinion but I highly recommend buying the Eero over the Nest.

I would recommend this to a friend Not so Pro
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these because I used to have the original Google Wi-Fi pucks a few years ago and they worked great. These, I hooked up and from minute one was not getting the speed that I was supposed to be from my service provider (Comcast). I tried updating firmware, direct connect via ethernet, different configuration of router and access point, nothing fixed the abysmal speeds. I pay for Gigabit speeds and was getting max of 80Mbps wired, and maybe 400Mbps Wi-Fi.

Not great if you want to truly manage your network
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to setup but, like every other google product, the app to manage was really bad. Ended up returning for another product that allowed more control over the network.

Best Buy Warning
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What a joke…. 01/31/25: purchased this equipment on line and performed a “in store return” same day. Purchase still keeps showing on my statement. Best Buy Associate /Leslie claims they cannot help me in store. I need to call an 800 for help.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGreat Coverage. Excellent upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced may Google Wifi of 4 years with this even though I had no complaints with the older one. Couple of reasons, Google was not going to update the older product to support matter/thread. Best buy is offering a convenient 15 % trade in discount over and about any other discounts. Wifi download speeds have doubled in compatible devices (>300mbps to >600 mbps).
I would recommend this to a friendNot worth it
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would highly not recommend upgrading. It sounds appealing to have v6 but it's slow and clunky. Google Wifi was fine.

Avoid this System at All Costs
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought upgrading to this new Google system would improve my internet speed and infact it slowed me down. I tried contacting Google directly and they were not able to help. I kept my old Google system and it’s still faster. Save your money for something else.

Posted .Hey there, James. We’re sorry to hear your experience with the Nest wifi Pro wasn’t the best. 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 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.
