    Great routers, but overall not as speedy as my eero system. I would say these are great if you are in the Google ecosystem, but other than that I still feel like there are better choices at this price point, especially with the introduction of the new eero system with WiFi 6

    **MUST BUY IF YOU HAVE SPECTRUM INTERNET**

    If you have SPECTRUM internet, this router is an absolute must! Our internet/wifi would go out constantly, multiple times a day. We would have spectrum out at least once a month for connectivity issues. It would work for a day or two and right back to loosing internet again. Tried new spectrum routers, new modems and even some after market routers. Nothing helped. So finally after talking to a best buy agent, she recommended this, said she had similar issues with her house and this fixed it. Once installed, we haven't lost internet/wifi or had any connectivity issues since! This is a definite must have. We have full signal throughout our entire home and detached garage. Highly recommended.

    Router was easy to set up. The google wifi app has a lot of features that help you monitor the network. You'll want a good network switch if you have more than 1 device that needs to be hard wired, but this router has worked great.

    Best Mesh System

    This mesh system is perfect for a 2,000 sqft home and works flawlessly. I have yet to have an issue with this system. I did originally have just the router but found it was not sufficient for 2k sqft. A router with one extender is perfect.

    Love this! I bought this because I have a 14 room house. My WiFi was very slow. I had service technician come out and he recommended this. Since I bought it I’ve had no problems with WiFi speed. I would definitely recommend this product.

    This was suggested to us because the WiFi router supplied to us by Spectrum just was not strong enough to supply the signal we needed in our home. I am very pleased the coverage in my home now and would highly recommend to anyone.

    Great now it’s working. Very frustrating with Spectrum internet since I needed them to “re-provision” their modem. Couldn’t find that advice in Google searches and initial calls to both Google and Spectrum failed to identify the issue. Final calls to both revealed the magic word, after which, set up was a breeze. Works great with so far no dead spots found in our four bed, two floor and finished basement home. Would suggest getting an Ethernet switch since the Google unit has only one output and we have hard wired TV, phone, NAS etc. Nearly returned it due to modem connection frustration, but glad I didn’t. So much better than previous Wi-Fi extender option.

    We’ve only had this for 2 weeks and the WiFi seems to be extending better upstairs and around the house. I feel that the speed of the WiFi and connectivity has gone in an out which has been frustrating and did not happen with our previous modem. Will update after another few weeks. Jalpa

    Works great. It gives full and steady coverage to the full house and for all of the devices. My Altice One box sometimes would kick out 2.4g devices and they would be offline most of the time. With nest wifi everything is connected all the time.

    Had been resetting my router 1-2 times a week due to slow speeds. After putting these in I have yet to reset it (roughly 1 month). The google speakers in the access points is a huge plus as well. Look nice, very functional, highly recommend.

    Internet reliability and speed has increased dramatically and I can even work from my back yard now which is awesome given I’ve been working from home for over a year. Just wish I’d have made the investment sooner.

    I purchased this mesh system to replace a Linksys AC1200 router. WOW, it didn't disappoint, the signal strength in my house went for mediocre to strong everywhere! Bonus for the included Google Home capabilities and easy App management!

    Great product. WiFi runs perfectly anywhere in the house - i can even get a decent signal outside! Google assistant works great, I was afraid that it would pick up voices from the tv but I haven’t had that problem. Love it!

    Using the Google Home app on your phone, this practically sets itself up. Speed distribution is good and the point having a microphone is a good touch. The price is a little high, but if you catch it on sale it's a good deal.

    I needed to upgrade and beef up my network. For the mere fact of having better range while still supporting all of my Sonos devices! Very happy, definitely have been recommending!

    I bought these two to upgrade our internet at home. We live in an 1800 sf home. The connection has improved but not significantly. It disconnects every now and then. One of the pluses is that you can utilize the mesh point as google home. I would still recommend this to someone else

    So I have been very hesitant to switch from netgear as have had them for at least a decade. However I like the mesh Feature and wanted something that had growth potential. So far the nest WiFi fits the bill easy setup and use.
