Google nest mesh or something else?

Forget the Google crap. It’s garbage. Take that $300 and put it towards a UniFi Cloud Gateway Ultra, a Lite 8 PoE switch, and a U6+ AP. You’ll only spend just a little more than the Nest WiFi Pro, and it’s a system that you’ll actually be pleased with. Bonus, you’ll have room for expansion later - j

How I Improved my Google Home Experience

For those not interested in a wall of text. TL;DR:After years of unreliable performance with smart home devices—including disconnecting speaker groups, Nest cameras dropping, and general network instability—you replaced your Nighthawk + extender setup with Nest WiFi Pro, only for it to get even wors

"Older" Google Mesh Wifi System, time to retire?

I still use the 1st gen Google Mesh Wifi and it works great. I'd like the newest 6e version for access to higher speed, but they still work great. If you are in fact using wifi 6, then you have the newest 3rd generation Nest Wifi Pro. It's not the one with the Google home speakers built in, right?

Finally Did It. I drilled vent holes in my Google Wifi Pro 6e's.

So after almost 6 months of dealing with having to restart the network when it would drop to 10Mbs, when it should be getting 400Mbs. I opened one up and looked at where I could drill vent holes, made a masking tape template and then drilled all 6 of my units. The outcome.... 2 weeks without having

¿Necesito homologar router?

Hace unos días me trajeron un 3-pack de Google Nest Wifi Pro que compré usados por swappa en maleta de mano y no hubo problemas, cero homologación ni certificación. Cabe destacar que estaban sin su caja y debidamente acompañados de su factura. Aunque podría ser una excepción. Pero quizás valga la pe

Goodbye Nest WiFi…it has NOT been fun.

Maybe I lucked out, my Google Nest WiFi Pro has been fine for nearly 2 years. Wired to a switch that routes to all of the Ethernet ports in the house. I only use 1 AP, Ethernet on the furthest ends of the house with weak signal.

Thinking About Switching to Quantum Fiber? Read This First.

And note for OP: ISP can’t do much when your walls are blocking your signals, they could propose a wireless mesh but the speed results wouldn’t be too different since this problem is with the physical attributes of your house. Try to see if you can run physical Ethernet cable with your baseboard and

Google Nest WiFi Pro 3rd generation is slower than 2nd generation

I'm phasing out all of my Google products because of Nest WiFi Pro. 50 feet away with line of sight, the mesh just goes slower and slower on and off constantly, reset after reset, I'm DONE. I can't wait to replace everything with non google products.

Slow Wi-Fi on new 500/50 plan, but wired speed is fine. Is my modem the bottleneck?

The router you have is 802.11ac, or WiFi 5. What you're seeing is pretty typical for a router like yours, given its internal antenna and the walls in between. The 1300 Mbps number is an overall theoretical, not a per-device speed, so your PC is completing on that pipe with all other WiFi devices in

Nest WiFi Pro in 2026?

I’ve been using the Wi-Fi Pro (6-pack) in my house for about two years and have never had any issues. Before that, I used the 2018 Nest WiFi (3-pack). Over the years, I’ve had a reliable experience with it. I’m sure there are better options out there, but Google WiFi Pro works well for me. No dead s
