do nest wifi pro nodes only connect to the nest wifi pro router or can they can connect to each other wirelessly?

It's more complicated than that, but there are a few things to consider. First, Nest WiFi Pro runs the (hidden) mesh interconnect on the 6GHz band, which is (still) subject to lower transmit power constraints than 5GHz is. It sounds like that may be the issue here. Second, yes -- in theory, they wil

Nest WiFi (2nd Gen) PPPoE Issue

I had the Nest Wifi Pro but my backline speeds sucked. I upgraded to Amazon Eeros and have had zero problems.

What Generation is Your Wi-Fi?

I've been using the Google Nest Wifi Pro for years and after recently changing from an ISP that uses DHCP, to an ISP that uses PPPoE authentication, I was very annoyed to find Google still hadn't fixed a bug whereby the Nest Pro would always underread the speed tests and automatically adjust the QoS

Yale Smart Lock

The Nest Wifi Pro (Wi-Fi 6E) is also a border gateway router, so you may have missed out on a wifi upgrade instaed of buying the dedicated device. Matter over Thread getting the same certification as Matter over Wifi is just bonkers and a crime against the regular user. One of the big advantages of

ISP Upgrade now Nest Wifi Pro is unstable

I'm late to the party here but I would recommend upgrading to a different mesh setup that supports the faster speeds as the Nest Wifi Pro only has 1 gig lan and WAN ports so unless you're using it just as a wifi access point with other devices hard wired to whatever your ISP gave you, you're only ge

Finally switched to TP-Link Deco

I switched to Deco on Thursday and went for a 3 pack of the BE63 which is also known as a 9300. Setup was really easy with the app, as is the ability to give each device a name and also, you can lock devices down to only connect to specific access points which has resolved a few issues I had with th

Nest pro slow

Are you with a provider that relies on PPPoE to authenticate to the Internet by any chance? I am, and would find running speed tests in the Google Home app, they would massively under report and eventually, the Nest Wifi Pro would need a reboot. You're lucky to last 5 days. I believe turning off clo

Switching Google home to Gemini, worth it?

"Sorry, I didn't understand" 99% of the time. I can ask the weather, ask it to turn on a light or a smart plug, to play music, it doesn't matter. I've retrained the voice, set the sensitivity, rebooted and rebuilt the entire network, it just fails non-stop. On the regular, if I ask it to turn off th

Google Nest Wifi Pro causes bufferbloat – ISP line is A, Ethernet to router is B, but WiFi is D. Time to replace the Google Nest mesh system?

Makes sense, unfortunately wiring isn't an option for me (no coax either). I have kids gaming in both the basement and on the 1st floor, so I'm dependent on WiFi delivering decent latency. Would dedicated APs still be a meaningful improvement over Google Nest Wifi Pro in that scenario?
