Easy set up but requires google app. Limited ethernet ports. Good range
Hey there, helios025. Thanks for taking the time to post a review about the Nest Wifi Pro. Our goal is to provide a great user-experience, and your feedback helps us better understand our customers’ preferences and needs.
Using the Google Home app provides you with a lot of benefits including access to Google's trusted security platform and access to other Google tools and with seamless integration with other Google devices. A single place to set up, manage, automate, and control your home, including devices from other brands.You'll be able to do things like update your network settings, manage parental controls, and run speed tests in the Google Home app. After you add your Wifi devices and settings to the Google Home app, the app will allow you to use the Google Assistant to do things like pause Wi-Fi, check your internet speed, and show your guest Wi-Fi password on Nest displays. You can also add a point to your existing network. Learn more using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9547597
If you find yourself in need to add LAN ports, having a switch will allow you to expand your networking system with additional Ethernet ports, which enables you to hardwire more devices to your network.

Easy setup, added one more for a total of 4 points for my home. Coverage is remarkable and very quick. Replaced an older mesh system and it has been much better.

I had a Nest Wifi 5 for a long while and worked just ok, but wifi speed was subpar and took forever to connect to my nest cameras. Also, I could never use to the fullest my 1Gbps fiber bandwidth because of the Wifi 5 limitations.
For that reason, I decided to give the new Nest Pro 6 a chance. Worst mistake I have ever made.
It worked fine for a few weeks, then everything started failing and disconnecting all the time. Unstable connection with a lot of volatile latency in the network unsustainable for people working from home using video conference.
I suspected it could be my internet connection, so I decided to try connecting all my devices directly to the AT&T Fiber router, and it worked perfectly.
Reaching out to Google support, they required me (baffle now) to cable all mesh points.
This is absurd and the most ridiculous product support I have ever received and made me decide to never purchase any Google products for the rest of my life.
I hope you read this review before buying this piece of hit garbage.
Do yourself a favor and buy an Eero mesh which ja a thousand times more reliable, faster, and cheaper.

This gave me better speed than the orignal 2016 Google WIFi it replaced, but the range wasn’t as good and the speed was less than expexted. My router from my ISP gets around 800 mbps down but i got about half that with this. I had much better results with a different WiFi 6e mesh router. On the plus side, the unit looks nice, it has a simple ser up, and you don’t need to download a new app if you already use Google home.

Had to return the product just because I did not like the UI of it. No advance features but the speeds were great and very minimal configuration required
Thanks for giving the Nest Wifi Pro a go, Guyinphx. Even though you’ve returned it, we’d appreciate any additional feedback you can provide — when you get a second, here’s a survey to share more: https://google.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2aStd8wsbcLGvwG

Excellent product. Really solved my range problem and speed is over 400 MBPS for a 500 MBPS connection. Easy to hide and so many devices can be connected now, no problem with my kids devices and helps with their School homework without connection dropping. I thank the engineers who created this product.

Replaced my previous google wifi oucks with these since we recently transitioned to 1g fiber. These are easy to set up but keep in mind i do not use these as a wirless mesh system since i have had issues previously with getting the aoeeds i wanted out of my previous set up. I use these as wired back haul and get wifi speeds and both sides of my house at 800+up and down consistently. Turning off yhe wirelss on my ISP router, i use ethernet cables and two unmanaged switches to hard wire the wifi point producing the high speed wifi connections. Obly think lacking is the ports for some users. For me these are great and do the job as simple as possible.

Having switched from Nest's previous generation mesh wifi system I first thought this would be easy. Well some parts were but i had to manually reset and reprogram my home security system which is also Nest products which I thought this could be an easy programmable fix that updates all Google products to the new network. The signal strength seems like it is working better, which is the primary factor of my decision to buy the updated version but I still feel like devices are struggling to connect in my home but I made some changes to see if that works out.oh and the fact that I lose out on the speaker from the previous generation is almost enough to give this product a 3 star rating but I'll leave that bias in the comments bc you might not be transitioning from the same product as me.

Easy setup. These hubs have a small footprint allowing you to place them in your home without drawing attention. The indicator light can be set to bright, medium or off. Easy access via the home app. You can individually reboot each hub if needed. I'm getting fast speeds and no buffering while viewing shows on multiple TV's.

The product couldn't be more perfect for our needs. We use google home for our small business and these nests allow us to expand out network around the property when holding ticketed events on our outside stage and when we sell merch outside.

Mesh Network that Just Works. The setup was simple and using these with my Google Fiber I'm pulling download times of 968mbs and uploads around 944mbs. Fantastic. Just one could actually cover most of my home, but I have one upstairs and one downstairs just to be sure. I get wifi around 10 yards out of the back door.

Very solid mesh network router, my Wi-Fi reaches half way down my block. No longer have any dead spots in my house, it easily covers my 5k sqft house. Very easy to setup took me about 5 minutes and my network was up and running
