Product Description
Google Nest Wifi 1 Pack packaged with a Google Seal for Online Marketplace Google Nest Wifi is the easy to set up whole-home mesh Wi-Fi system. Nest Wifi routers work together to blanket your whole home in fast, reliable Wi-Fi and eliminate buffering in every room, on every device – with coverage up to 4400 square feet.[1] This is Wi-Fi the way it should be. [1] Home size, materials, and layout can affect how Wi-Fi signal travels. Larger homes or homes with thicker walls or long, narrow layouts may need extra Nest Wifi devices for full coverage. [2] This is based on only using connected devices at a maximum data rate of 1Mbps. Requires sufficient broadband internet connection and connected devices must be located within Wi-Fi coverage area. [3] Strength and speed of signal will depend on your internet provider.

I had to call customer service because when I first installed it I was getting about 65mbps and have 300mbps internet. I spent probably about an hour with tech support trying to figure out why it wasn't getting over at least 150mbps. Finally after all the trouble shooting the issue was that the google router assigns which frequency to connect a device to. So most computers get assigned to a 2ghz frequency not the 5ghz. Cellphones and some tablets get connected to 5ghz. Your smart devices like TV, Android Tv Box will get 5ghz, and small wifi enabled devices connects at 2ghz frequency. Once I understood that it made sense and was working as it should. However, it would have been nice to be told this first before going through trouble shooting steps. It would have been a shorter support call if they had said that first. Hopefully other Google Support staff are more knowledgeable, and I just got a newbie. I do like that you can test the internet speed directly through the google app. Very convenient.
One thing I do not like about it is that you can not choose which frequency to connect a device at. It automatically assigns the device to a frequency (2ghz or 5ghz). This is a little inconvenient when downloading a large file to your computer. It takes longer because it's only connecting at the 2ghz frequency. Hopefully they will add that feature with future updates. It's a small inconvenience for me though. All around I am very happy with the purchase.
1- Do not be affraid of installation, it was very simple.
The routers and the points -or 2 routers in this case- create a mesh by themselves wihtout any user intervention.
The app guides you through the process. As a tech guy, this was so easy I feel guilty :p
2- This mesh will improve your WiFi speed across the house for any internet service up to about 600-700 Mbps, I daresay. WiFi has its limitations, anything above that is wishfull thinking due to the harware constraints of our current phones and devices. But... the real improvement is not the "speed" itself (read below).
3- This is the 2 router pack, not the classsic "router" and "point/Google assistant" pack. I chose this one expressly since the routers have ethernet LAN RJ45 jacks (ports), which the "points" lack, because my house is already wired with LAN ethernet cable and I already have plenty of "hey google" things around =)
Note: you will need proper harware to get anything above 50 Mbps, e.g.: Cat. 5e or Cat. 6 cable , and if you use an ethernet switch make sure it is Gigabit compliant, otherwise stick to the standasrd WiFi mesh, you'll be surprised: this WiFi mesh will be faster than a 10/100 cable or a "Fast Ethernet" switch.
4- It is fast, indeed, but take note: since the mesh talks in both directions, there will be a natural minimal speed loss when connected to a "point" (or the secondary "router" in this case). E.g.: when the mesh is connected wirelessly (pure WiFi mesh), I get 100 Mbps near the router and 50-70 Mbps near the "point"; but when wired (ethernet backhaul between the 2 routers) I get 80-100 Mbps near the "point". I think this is expected, completely normal due to the 2-way wireless communication between both mesh devices.
5- My ISP installed a coaxial Modem/Router combo unit in my house, I was affraid of the dared double-NAT menace, but to my relief they got allong surprisingly well.
Actually, I kept my original WiFi network and the new nest mesh network up simultaneously for a couple days, while migrating everything (the easy and recommended way would have been to disable the old WiFi network and use the same SSID name and password on the new one, but I wanted to experiment a little).
Anyhow, although they seemed to work fine together, I decided to turn off the ISP Modem/Router's WiFi radios to avoid any possible interference. WiFi can be grumpy when crowded.
6- I chose the newest "Nest" WiFi mesh routers over the previous "Google" WiFi mesh or the Nest points because they have:
a) faster WiFi conection (AC2200 vs AC1200),
b) bigger area coverage (205 m2 vs 140 m2),
c) more antennas (4x4 vs 2x2) and
d) the capability of transmitting data to multiple devices simultaneously (MU-MIMO vs no-nothing). THIS is paramount. The improvement is noticeable when the kids are watching video streams and playing games while I hold to that important zoom meeting.
(Note: The Nest points do have MU-MIMO, too, but lack the extra speed and extra coverage of the Nest routers. In exchange, they double as Google assistant speakers, so choose your potion)
7- Get both apps, Google Home and Google Wifi. They seem to be migrating everything from Google WiFi to Google Home, but meantine get both! Google WiFi gives some extra options such as a speed test of all connected devices or information about the connection type between points, wired or wireless.
In conclusion, the real "speed", the improvement over a standard WiFi network is not measured in Mbps by Speedtest, it's not even the extended coverage or the transparent, automatic handling of WIFi when moving around the house without hiccups nor the beamforming technology which sends the WiFi signal straight toyour device: it's how it handles devices and distributes bandwidth, making each device in my house faster individually, all at the same time, keeping my data transmission speedy and steady when the kids are squeezing the WiFi signal and my internet bandwidth.
The only thing I would have wished for is WiFi 6 support (future proof). Otherwise well done, Google. I'm impressed. I have spoken.

Top reviews from other countries
With the old wifi extender we were getting high speeds through the wired connection downstairs but never anything great through wifi (wifi seemed to be a quarter of what the wired speed was).
After plugging in the first google nest it was immediately clear the signal was boosted a lot. (Speed tests in main level were much higher, at 2 to 4 times better than before) and I added a second nest on the main floor to boost the signal upstairs. That signal strength went from pretty low (with a different wifi extender) to very similar speeds the main floor was seeing.
So far worth the money as a relatively cost effective solution to poor wifi from the internet provider router.
2. "intelligent" switching between 2.4GHz and 5GHz means you *cannot* choose it yourself.
3. Meshing between levels probably works in countries with wooden floors, but with concrete in India, it doesn't work well - horizontal range is less 50 ft between two levels.
4. Doesn't show devices connected unless you agree to the "cloud" option where it will log every single device and probably its activity.
5. No configuration options for power (of the radio), access-control using MAC, etc.
Please don't buy this if you're in India.
