It took me a little while to get it set up on a few devices. I did pay a little more, but so far I really like it. It seems to connect better than the other brand I have used. The sale person explained really well and very polite. I can't remember his name, over a month ago since he helped me.

I'm never had connectivity issues with this and it looks great, I don't even have to hide it. You can also manage some settings via the Google Home app which is nice, but I wish you could do move from the app.

It Fixed Issues in My Friend's Apartment

I bought this Google - Nest Wifi AC2200 Router for my friend's apartment. He purchased the slowest internet speed available from his ISP in order to keep his costs down, but he consequently had a few issues with his network as a result. I have the older style Google Wifi devices in my own home and I love them! They gave me fast, reliable connections to numerous devices in every room of my house. Since the older style Google Wifi access points are no longer available, I purchased this latest Google Wifi product instead. I installed it in my friend's apartment, and it solved several problems! His internet is faster on all of our devices. His Sling TV streams better on his Samsung 2019 smart TV. The wireless internet connection between his 2019 HP printer and his very old Mac desktop, old MacBook Air, and iPad are completely glitch free now, and his HP printer's response time has massively improved to downright awesome! This Google Nest Wifi has made a big difference in his network's internet performance! It was a snap to set it up. I'm very pleased.

I love this router. It broadcasts the signal nicely around our home and it has the 2.4 and 5.0 signals to choose from. The Google WiFi app helps you prioritize the device you'd like and let's you know what devices are using up the most WiFi. Love it

The Google Wifi was extremely easy to set up, and the improved router service is a breath of fresh air. If you don't already have Google Assistants feel free to add on a Wifi point because it has assistant capabilities. The ability to suspend service to devices and test the service speed are very nice features

I bought this router due to the fact that I also have google fiber. And this thing has not caused any problems for me at all. No disconnections, no lags, everything is perfect! I used to have a nighthawk but google nest wifi is what you need!

Works amazing! Bought this to boost the range in my house, it joined an existing mesh network of the same Nest Wifi. Just wish Google would stop being outdated and add a Wifi6e system to this. Would upgrade in a heartbeat!

I had no idea what to expect from this router. I bought this at my father-in-law’s suggestion. Took me a little while to get it set up (I’m not too tech savvy) and it worked quickly and easily. Connected it with Google Home and it’s been so easy to use. No issues with this router thus far!

Gone through several routers & modem/router combos but this one has exceed my expectations! The google home app has made the setup really easy. My only complaint is not being able to kick specific devices off the network. As of right now the only solution is use the family feature/guest WiFi

Hi Tlaloc, we value your feedback on Nest Wifi, and we’re glad that it works as designed. Only the Nest Wifi point has a built-in microphone or speaker with Google Assistant The Nest Wifi router doesn't have a speaker or Google Assistant, and it won’t be able to answer questions you ask Google or respond to voice commands itself. But you can still use Google Assistant on your smart display, speaker, or phone to tell your Nest Wifi to do things like pause the Wi-Fi on your devices or check your internet speed.
We’re always here to help. Let us know at the following link if you have any questions or concerns around the performance and features of the Nest Wifi: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

This is an amazing upgrade to the wifi. I had two apple AirPort Extreme devices that got overwhelmed when there were more than 15 people in the house. This manages up and downstream connections like no other. My speed went up from 150/190 mbps to over 400 with no effort.

A friend recommended buying 3 Nest mesh routers instead one router and 2 end points and I have to say, that was a great suggestion. Our wifi speeds have never been better throughout the house. There are no more dead zones and the set-up was incredibly easy.

Excellent/easy replacement for Google Wifi Router

We bought this to replace the Google Wifi Router in our mesh system. It was very easy to replace—instructions are on Google's website. We factory re-set all the mesh points, unplugged the old Google Wifi Router and moved it to its new location as a mesh point. Then we plugged this new router into our ISP equipment and created a new mesh network using Google Home. We turned off Google Assistant because it's not something we need in the room that our equipment lives in—I am thankful that this is an option. I feel that our mesh network is now a little better than before. Our ISP is not great to begin with, so it is hard to judge based on the week that we've owned it. Unfortunately I cannot say that I like Google home's interface better than the Google Wifi app, though. It's just too much to deal with for someone who only wants the extended mesh network. I am marking it down one notch on the value scale because it's a fairly expensive little thing.

Speed recovery not working

My experience with this mesh system has not been good. After installing the router, my signal and internet speed was excellent. Once I walked to the other end of our house the signal became worse and the speed was dramatically reduced, which is to be expected. However, once I walked back to the router, the signal and speed did not recover fully for quite a long time. The speed improved, but remained much, much slower.
After waiting a long time next to the router, I've noticed that the signal and speed suddenly return to normal, but this long time lag should definitely not exist for such an expensive system. I don't have the point installed, so this is not causing any interference.
Anyway, I worked with Google's technical support and after running a diagnostic they said that there was a problem with the router and I should exchange it for a new one. I did this, but the problem persists with the new one so I'm unfortunately going to return this system and get a different one. I've seen this issue posted on a bunch of forums now and it remains unresolved, so I don't think there is a short term fix until Google issues some type of update to fix the problem. I just don't really want to deal with the hassle at this point.
I have a Google-based smart home and was looking forward to tying everything together with the Nest mesh, but unfortunately, this won't be the case.

This isn’t necessarily the absolute fastest or longest range router around, but I got it to replace one that was causing jittery performance and having random drop outs and stutters. So far this has been rock solid, which is really the most important thing.

Works great, more options than last model. Fast and is working great with my older last gen WIFI points. Has more features and they are more assessable (easier to locate) using the Home APP. I have noticed a clearer 4k picture on my TVs after switching.
