    I have had Linksys routers for years, after giving this router a try, I will be staying with Google. The router is easy to setup, amazing user interface (simplistic, easy to use) and you get to use Google's DNS servers which I noticed a incredible jump in speed! I also like it's not bulky and is simple to setup a mesh network.

    I had the netgear orbi for a while but has given me more issues with s high price tag. I finally gave up and threw away a $400++ mesh router. Then I decided to google wifi. I couldn’t believe it and I am sticking with this product. Good price and best overall for my needs. I won’t go back to netgear ever.

    I set this up late at night. I was not getting good reception. The following day it was perfect. I find it quite fantastic.

    This product works extremely well with 3 devices to help distribute the connections throughout the house. We did have periodic problems in the beginning with connection to the modem. Customer support was very good and we found it was the modem not the Google Wifi. After the modem was replaced it has worked perfect.

    This has been a great product and was simple to setup. We used to have dead spots around our house where we couldn't event get service in some rooms like our bedroom (other end of the house) and now our smart TV can stream 4K shows with ease.

    I installed this in a friends house who was having terrible trouble with their older style single piece multiple antenna wifi router. Since installing this at equal distances throughout their home, they have not had one instance of signal drop or any lag or buffer with their music or movies. They are happy and so am I:)

    I am glad someone is trying to create a true mesh network for home wifi. Google has made these little discs easy to set up and tie together. But, I would say they are still in their first generation of evolution and there are some tweaks I'd like to see. 1. Be aware that the design requires all of the routers to be within range of the primary router to create the mesh. This means that if your router is at one end of the house, you can't daisy your routers to extend your mesh to the other end of your property. A larger mesh is created if you are fortunate enough to have your primary router central and can put the others out and around like a spoke and hub. It would be superior if there was a way that the mesh could daisy the routers wirelessly to allow you to truly create an extended mesh network. 2. The app is easy to use but could use some enhanced features. One would be to allow you to allocate specific amounts of bandwidth to a given device. Currently the app allows you to "prioritize" a device which is not the same thing. Prioritize would allow you to select say your Apple TV while watching a movie so that it gets the bandwidth while you are using it. But this is a limited solution. If you for example you have a web cam set up somewhere, you might want to be able to gate it so that it never takes up say more than 1 Mbps of your upload bandwidth. Higher resolution cams can take a lot of pipe and if you access the camera remotely and it is feeding HD upstream, you can really congest your router. Being able to limit certain devices to "no more than" would be an excellent feature for Google to consider. I do like them and would recommend them but understand they could be better yet.

    I finally upgraded my router from some 10 year old hardware I’ve had laying around the house. The google Wifi router plugged right in, easily made a secure network, and connected to everything. It says that a single unit isn’t ideal for a large dwelling, however I’m getting constant speeds and no interruptions in every room.

    This was recommended to me from the sales person at the store. I wanted full coverage for my home internet access. This product exceeded my expectations in regards to internet speed across our home. I did not plan on spending as much as I did for router and this product, but it was worth it.

    Significantly Improved WiFi Signal

    Our router was 3 rooms away from our living room so we purchased this device to up the WiFi signal. After a really easy installation (1 hour max), we doubled our download/upload speeds (to the speeds we're actually paying for). Definitely try moving the device to different corners of the same room as this made a real difference.

    Let me start by saying I was skeptical of this setup, but reading reviews online decided to go for it. So some background. I have Spectrum Internet, with 100MB up and down, and a 2900 sqft one level house. My router is setup in a converted single garage on one side of the house. For the most part the internet coverage is good, but of course the further you go from the router the weaker the signal. So went for the 3 unit package. The setup was very easy. Attach one to the Spectrum router, install the app and follow the simple steps. Then, again using the app place each unit strategically through the house (don't worry the app will tell you the best place). After that, setup your Wi-Fi name and password and get connected. After testing the signal strength throughout the house I'm very impressed with the quality of signal. I've even taken advantage of the Ethernet port on each unit to "hard wire" my TV and Slingbox setup. No issues. You can create guest passwords for wireless access and create family deadzone times, when Wi-Fi gets cut off (not used this, wife would probably kill me). Overall, recommended for those with dead spots in a house.

    Set up for this wifi router was very simple. The app is interactive and also easy to use. Would definetely recommend it. If you have a large house or coverage area you can also link them together and only one unit needs to be connected to the internet via cable.
