This mesh system is outstanding. I’m coming from an apple AirPort Extreme router which I loved. This system gets better coverage and it’s capable of restricting WiFi use for your kids. This is useful when it comes to school nights and you’re worried about your kids staying up all night. With parental controls you no longer have to worry about that. Set schedules and restrict access. Very convenient. Highly recommend to anyone looking to upgrade their WiFi system.

Purchased the Google Wi-Fi hoping to get better speed on my wifi through my smaller house. Signal isn't and issue but just being a room over from the AT&T Gateway cut my 50mbps connection in half. Not with the Google wifi I always get my 50mbps no matter where I'm at in my home. The best part is the app, wheee you can test the system and make sure your getting the best network performance and see what's bogging your network down. Highly recommended and defentially a better value than any other mesh wifi system.

So I have a house that just blows chunks for decent router placement. To anyone that has lived the pain of using a repeater you need this. It will save so much time from having to change your wi-fi connection that you won't know how you ever lived without it. Add to that that this is super simple to set up. Sure the simplicity might throw off a hardcore network jock but for me, the house wi-fi life is now like a box of chocolates and every single one of them is a nut cluster of sanity.

If you hate the thought of spending time setting up WiFi and having to unplug and re-plug in your router constantly, this router is for you. Google's mesh network makes it super simple to add more routers to the network to extend the signal to corners of the house that struggle with network speed. Setup was super simple, and we haven't touched it since! Our WiFi is blazing fast and we never have to think about it, which is the most important part.

I have 3 of these little devices in my house hardwired together. I’ve never had WiFi so good, the speed I get to my devices is as fast as the internet will show at all times, att uverse 300. I’ve never had a slow down or had to restart since I bought them a month ago.
If you thinking the Linksys may be better or wondering if they are worth the hype, trust me, stop thinking and go buy them.
I’m not a fan of google at all, but they got this right!

Replaced Apple network since they are getting out of the router business. This was easy to setup with xfinity cable modem and placed the three modules around the house. Nice that u can Ethernet cable from each to a device if desired. In main office extended Ethernet cable to old Apple router in bridge mode to have gig Ethernet to the main two computers. Bottom line Wifi is strong through the house using the 3 pack, much better coverage (was definitely expecting that over a single tower previously)

Couldn’t be happier with this product. I got the 3 piece, placed 1 in finished basement and other 2 on main floor. Never any dead zones or low WiFi signal in any part of my home. Easy, simple set up. Highly recommend

The Google WiFi mess system was easy to install for this non-tech savvy buyer and worked beautifully with one exception (more about later). We live in a 3-story townhouse with our router and modem on the middle floor. We recently wanted to add a doorbell camera and a driveway camera to our security system. Our WiFi network was already handling 2 iPhones, a MacBook Pro laptop, an iPad, a wireless printer and a Google Home Mini, so between the overall number of devices and the distance from the router to the front door and back driveway which were both obviously on the first floor, we thought that we would try to boost performance by installing the mesh system. Installation was quick and easy and a quick check on Ookla's Speed Test indicated a nice increase in the WiFi signal, but then the problem began. We could not get the camera in the driveway or the doorbell camera to pair with the system installed. I should add here that these cameras were provided though our security system provider so that they would work "seamlessly" with our other security system features and were both Skybell cameras. That was the problem. After several calls to tech support with our security company, we finally discovered that Skybell will only work with a 2.4 Ghz system and the Google mesh is dual band, so not compatible. I cannot fault the Google mesh system for this. Their product did exactly what it was supposed to do, but in the end, while it clearly improved the strength of our WiFi signal, it was unable to do what we had hoped, and we had to return the item to Best Buy. Still, I would recommend the product to anyone for whom the dual band part is not a concern and they only want to improve WiFi signal strength throughout their home. It is relatively inexpensive, effective and easy to install.
