Google Wifi - Easy Setup, Fast Wifi, Everything I Wanted!
Google Wifi ReviewTL;DR version: 48 hours in and I’m absolutely amazed. True to form and other reviews, these things just work, are rock solid, and fast. Very happy with the purchase.The longer version for those interested….Background: A while back I got gigabit speed internet here at home. The speed is amazing on my wired iMac, but wifi through my Apple AirPort routers (1x AirPort Extreme, 3x AirPort Expresses acting as repeaters) was leaving something to be desired. Comcast had given me a big Netgear Nighthawk monstrosity as part of the gigabit package and when I tried it out vs. the AirPorts the difference was night and day - the Nighthawk wifi network was multiple times faster than the AirPort network. Come to find out my trusty AirPort network didn't support the newest, latest, greatest wifi standards so simply wasn't as fast as the Nighthawk. And Apple has apparently decided to get out of the router game.The Problem: To take advantage of the greater speed, I reconfigured my network to support both the higher speed Nighthawk wifi and the lower speed AirPort network. Why keep both? Because the single nighthawk didn't have enough range to cover my three story, 4,500 sq.ft. house (and the now hard-wired 1,000 sq. ft. guest house) while the multiple AirPort expresses did. So now I had two completely different wifi networks running at two different speeds covering different parts of the house. Not ideal, especially now that I'm more reliant on wifi for my iPhone (T-Mobile's signal in the house isn't great, so my wife and I have been using the really excellent wifi calling feature.)The Solution: Today I replaced ALL my routers with four Google Wifi units. The primary wired into the Comcast modem in the office (downstairs), one for the Master Bedroom (2nd level, mesh), one for the guest bedroom (kind of a separate split level thing off to the side, also mesh), and one for the Guest House (hard wired to Ethernet run from the main house). The primary unit connects to a gigabit switch that then connects to several wired devices.The Verdict: Only two days in, but so far I'm thrilled. The Google Wifi units form a mesh network that seems to cover my entire house in strong wifi. I haven’t found anywhere in my oddly shaped and sized house that i’m not getting flawless wifi. Some places are “faster” than others, but even in the “worst” spots I’m still getting at least 40Mbps which I’m not going to complain about. At best, I’m getting 200+Mbps, which definitely isn’t full gigabit but is leagues better than I could get from the AirPorts and on par with the best I’d ever gotten from the Nighthawk… while covering both houses with a single, uninterrupted network with great signal in every room.Setup was stupid simple and completely done from the iPhone app. Haven’t had a chance to really play with all of the cool features (internet pause, etc.), but the core functionality is fantastic. I was slightly concerned about functionality since it’s a Google device and we’re all-in on Apple gear (3x Macs, 2x iPhones, 4x iPads, etc.), but almost everything has worked flawlessly (the only glitch was, ironically, with the now Google-owned Nest Thermostats I have - the trick is to reset the network settings on the Nests and re-enter the new wifi info). Every device, wired or wireless, has worked beautifully and the speed is phenomenal.(As a note and as a point of comparison, I had been a pre-orderer for the Luma mesh wifi system and had briefly tried that out when it finally shipped. I had been greatly looking forward to it and was so disappointed when the units finally arrived. Setup was a nightmare - the stations couldn’t find each other requiring starting over, but then I entered a slightly different name during the process and then it tried to set up two networks, the coverage was bad, and on and on… The Google Wifi units are everything I had hoped the Luma system would be and more.)Downsides: Honestly, none that I can really tell so far. I’ve long since given up on caring about being able to tweak every little power user setting in a router, so the options offered by the Google Wifi app more than take care of my needs. It was a little confusing when I hooked up the Guest House unit (wired into Ethernet) as a wifi point because it asked me to unplug the ethernet during configuration but then didn’t really give me any guidance, but it still flawlessly added the unit to the existing mesh network (but now with ethernet backhaul). Placement in my house was a little bit of a pain, but that’s just my house being weird - since you just have to plug in wherever there’s a power outlet it’s about as painless as it can be.Final Thoughts: If anything changes or something wonky happens I’ll update this, but otherwise I wholeheartedly recommend Google Wifi. Buy it you’ll love it!

Great Speed Improvement, Easy Setup
I finally got so fed up with my SurfBoard modem/router coverage in our house that I took the plunge and upgraded to the Google WiFi Mesh Router 3 pack. My biggest problem was slow speeds and spotty coverage from the single router in my “office” room in our 3500 sq ft home. While I could achieve DL speeds of upto 50+ Mb/s in rooms close to the router, on my office laptop I was getting speeds of 0.15 Mb/s and often my printer would lose connectivity with the laptop. Long story short, after the new install I have great coverage all throughout the house and can get over 100Mb/sec using the Speed Test App on my office laptop. I am a happy camper!Installation: You connect the first node to your modem via an Ethernet cable, download the Google app and follow the installation instructions. Following a firmware update which only takes a few minutes you will be prompted to place the other mesh modes. I placed one in a bedroom on the same floor as the main node and it connected with good/great signal strength. This was a room that would not even get coverage from the existing router. The other node was placed downstairs in the family room adjacent to my office. This part was easy and completed quickly. The next part of the install was a bit more of a challenge. This involved connecting existing devices to the new network.Installation tip. Leave your existing wireless network active until you have transition your devices. Then disable the wifi radio on a combination modem/router or remove the separate router. Devices like iPhones, iPads, tvs, DVD players, satellite boxes, etc. are easily connected to the new network. I also have an alarm system, thermostats and a wireless camera connected to my network. The alarm was easy and the biggest challenge for the thermostats was getting them into wifi setup mode or reregisteing them for remote access. This was an issue specific to these devices and not an issue with the Google router. The camera posed the biggest challenge and hence my tip to leave your existing Network live and transition your devices before killing off your old network.Once all devices were transitioned I found a procedure online to put the SurfBoard into Bridge mode so it would only act as a modem and no longer as a wireless router. My device didn’t behave that well and would no longer communicate after some of the steps, so I ended up just disabling the wifi radio after multiple resets of the device. It’s only been a few days, but so far so good.Why Google wifi? I did the research on the other available mesh networks including eero, orbi and others, but Google was the cheapest. I have no desire to go in and tweak network settings. I. Just want reliable and fast Internet connectivity. If these issues are important to you, then another solution may be more appropriate. By the way the signal strength on my alarm went from one bar to three and now I may upgrade the garage door opener to a wifi model as I can now get a signal there! May also upgrade my stereo in the man cave garageto an network ready model. Just don’t tell my wife!She is also happy as the three “hockey puck” or mini “ufos” are not too objectionable to the decor!

It. Just. Works.
Over the years, I've used several different routers for home wifi, and most recently a rented modem/router gateway system from our service provider. Once I determined enough was enough with the monthly rental fee, it was time to determine if I wanted a combo unit or to go back to a separate modem and router. Ultimately, the separate devices won out, given that I could replace or upgrade one or the other over time as needed.I almost went back to a traditional router, but was intrigued by the mesh network idea, something that wasn't mainstream the last time I made a purchasing decision. The overwhelmingly positive reviews--here and elsewhere--of the Google system made me willing to take a risk, and I'm glad I did.Thus far, the network has performed flawlessly--notwithstanding hiccups with my provider in provisioning the modem. (So it goes.) All of the comments about easy setup from the app are spot on. It was intuitive and simple to set up my primary unit, and the app guided me through connecting the next two. Performing a network test was as easy as clicking on the screen to verify my placements worked.I spread the units out two rooms apart across one floor, whereas with my previous setup, the gateway was more or less where my "main" Google unit was, with a range extended where the furthest Google pod sits. The range extender setup was tolerable, but did not deliver great speeds, whereas with Google Wifi, I'm getting fantastic speeds, at the top of my service tier, consistently throughout the house.My setup was complete in under 30 minutes, and part of that time was considering which outlets I wanted to use, not actually setting up the devices.I do like being able to easily label devices, and the parental control/safe search feature for kids' devices (and the ability to pause, though I haven't tried that yet) from the app are welcome features. I also am appreciative that you can have more than one manager on the family account.Further, the ability to set a priority device is a nice touch. I used that while streaming a show on an Amazon Fire TV device, to ensure minimal buffering (and it worked, so far as I can surmise).Yes, the cost is higher than a traditional router, even a higher-end router. But not needing to switch manually between the two 2.4 and 5 gig networks is already a plus in my book, and the simplicity and quality are hard to argue with. I don't recall any modem or router ever being this easy to set up.A big thanks to Google for making home Wifi as simple as it should be,

Google WIFI, The Real Deal
Just thought I’d share some info. I know most if not all of us always hate those dead spots in the house with regards to internet and WiFi connectivity. I purchased up my service with a higher speed (500Mgbs) because I have up to 15 devices running at any given time. Gaming, 6 Smart TVs, 6 IPhones, 3 Mac Computers, 2 Alexa’s, my Security System, etc. It adds up fast.I had cox out to my house this past weekend and asked him how I can get more connectivity in places where the signal is weak. I told him I purchased a faster speed and it is still too slow. The rep told me it has nothing to do with speed as much as it has to do with the signal and connectivity. He said you can have 1G of speed but still be slow if your connection is weak throughout the house. The key is getting a strong signal everywhere so that speed is not compromised when weaker areas are attempting access in whatever capacity/form ie Iphone, Netflix, gaming etc.The cox rep told me that standard extenders do not do the trick. You know, the 10-20 dollar jobbers that plug into an outlet and look like a little cheap box. He also said the standard extenders are garbage because in order to benefit, they need to have a strong signal to them to begin with then the user has to manually connect to it time and time again. If the user is in their room on their iPhone and they leave, go down stairs then they lose the connection to the extender, have to reconnect to the main WiFi router and so goes the story. That is why extenders are cheap. They rarely serve their purpose. Trust me, I have tried this route in the recent pass. WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY.So, on to the solution that I am so so so stoked on. Totally worth the money, totally worth the investment. This is a real live, real life, real deal review of product I chose and it’s validity.My cox rep told me to look into replacing my current modem/WiFi router with a 2 part solution.Currently, I have a cable/WiFi combo. I decided to take my cox reps advice and purchased specific technology with the best most up to date technology.Part 1:I purchased a stand alone cable modem. I chose the Next Generation Arris SurfBOARD SB8200 with 3.1 DOCSIS technology. Before the purchase it is extremely important to make sure your cable provider supports the modem technology. It will say in the description what providers support it. If unsure, call your provider first. A lot of times the providers update what they support but don’t let the manufacturers know. Very important step.Part 2:Once you remove cable provider modem/WiFi combo, install new modem. Plug it in and attach the cable coax only. Call your cable provider and tell them you installed a new cable modem and need them to update their end and establish the connection. This does not take long. After that you are done and ready for part 3.Part 3:For the WiFi part (because I got rid of combo modem and went back to a 2 part solution) I purchased Googles WiFi System, the 3 pack because of my square footage.First, download Googles WiFi app. Sign in with your google account and follow the onscreen setup tutorial. Google makes it fast and easy.Second, unpack and plug in power of your first Google WiFi router and connect it to your chosen stand alone cable modem via ethernet cable. Once that is done, the app on your phone will have you scan the primary Google WiFi router. Once you scan it, you name it Family room, living room etc). This way you know it’s your primary point. Then google takes you through naming your WiFi network, setting up the password etc. Super easy!Once you set up your primary, it is connected, the tutorial tells you to set up your second location. I bought the 3 pack so I had 3 total to set up. I took my second WiFi router and put it in my master bedroom as this is a familiar dead spot and is a location that was a great perimeter point of reference to create a triangle line effect with regards to covering the entire house. Once you plug it in the wall, the Google app goes to work, connects the second location, allows you to name it and extends the entire primary signal to this second location. And I mean ENTIRE 5 bar signal strength.Finally, I took my third Google WiFi router device up stairs to the great room which is the furthest most point from the primary point. The google app finished the connection and synced them all together creating this triangle like coverage effect. Yes, the end point gives me 5 bars. Full signal.The Result:So, just to see how strong the signal was, I ran a test from the google app, then from my son’s Xbox and finally from my cox at home app just so I had an unbiased result with real congruence. Well, the result, full 5 bar strength with over 399Mgbs down load speed and over 60Mgbs upload. This was with multiple devices connected and probably 10 running and from the farthest distant part of the home. Now, I am finally benefiting from the speed I purchase, don’t have to reconnect to different extenders and DON’T need my entire house rewired for data access.The cost: roughly 400 bucks. (I’ll save 120 year from the modem rental and after 3.5 years essentially have my investment paid off).PS. Also purchased these cool brackets that the Google WiFi access points clip into and plug into the wall. No chords or cables showing. Very clean for those minimalist types.

It just works. A 4.5 Star Review.
I am a techie, mainly at the enthusiast level. I am by no means a networking expert. Our home is not large, only 1,200 sqft. However, it is an older home with thicker interior walls, a stone clad basement, and aluminum exterior siding. Getting a WiFi signal from our front room hub (where our able modem is) to our basement office all they way on the other side of our house was proving challenging thanks to the stone and brick fireplace and chimney stack. Our TP-Link wireless router could hardly muster two bars of Wi-Fi signal from the front room to the back of the house, let alone downstairs, on our patio, or worst off our garage.Before this system, we tried a Wi-Fi range extender. That lasted about a week before I sent it back. Sure it extended the range of our main router. The trade off was the never ending battle of having to manually change over to the closest WiFi network (the main router or the extended). I'm sure any logical and sane person would choose to name their extended network the same as their main network, smart thinking. Except. That only creates two of the same named networks, making it even more difficult to tell which one you are connected to. Being fed up with this, I turned to Amazon to find a solution.That is when I learned of Wi-Fi Mesh Systems. Holy cow are there many to choose from. So many reviews. So much networking goobly-gock. Many people tippy tapping the keyboard exclaiming their frustration that one system doesn't have DNS, IPV6, the LAN isn't gigabyte, and a bunch of other acronyms that frankly aren't relevant to the basic user. The very user these products are targeted to. I looked into Netgear's offering, as well as a few others at the time. There are more now for sure. What did it for me on the Google Wi-Fi system was...Google. They kinda know a thing or two about the internet.Anyway. I purchased this system in September 2017. I was hopeful it would solve my WiFi woes once and for all. I was very eager to install the system and wanted it to perform flawless, $250 is a lot to spend on hardware that is outdated after a year or so. We ended up setting up two units inside. One in our front room. We didn't keep it in the same location as our original router due to the interior structures of our house. We believed the fireplace and chimney were blocking a majority of the signal causing a dead zone. Instead, the unit now rests under a table lamp behind our sofa. Clear line of sight directly to back of the house. Perfect. With just the one unit installed in the new location, our WiFi signal was strong, full bars, even in the basement. But we had three of these things. We had to use the other two. After probably a week of messing around, we settled on the location for the second unit. In our back foyer. We hoped it would be able to penetrate our aluminum siding on both the house and garage to establish a respectable WiFi signal in the garage. Sadly, it did not. This is where the .5 star is deducted. The units do link up together to create the mesh network. The garage unit could never establish a strong enough connection with the unit that is maybe 40ft away in the back foyer. I suppose this is the aluminum siding acting a Faraday cage for the doomed WiFi signal. This problem was only remedied recently with a TP Link PowerLine adapter which is now, happily, supplying our garage Google WiFi with internet over the mains.In its 1.5 years of service, we have maybe had one hiccup which required a restart. One. In 1.5 years. That is fantastically reliable. The application used to setup the units is great. It is easy. The whole system is fantastic. I love that the units have a port that can supply a wired Ethernet connection. Especially handy when we added a security camera system and had to connect it to the internet. The system streams flawless over the WiFi mesh network. I really can't say anything bad about this system but...The .5 star deduction as noted above is due to the limitations of this system. The application doesn't tell you how strong or weak a signal from point to point is, just that it isn't strong enough to create the mesh. Another issue is that this system doens't include wall or ceiling mounts. Seriously. Google, you couldn't spend the extra $0.25 to include plastic wall/ceiling mounts? Nope. Have to buy those on Amazon from third parties.Anyway, that is all I have. If you want a system that just works, get this one. I have used it for the last 1.5 years with ZERO issues. The attached are speed tests. The first is from an iPhone Xs, the second is from a MacBook Pro Late 2013. Same distance any Google WiFi points. Our provider is Comcast and I believe we pay for 120MBps speed.

Day One Experience with Google WiFi - Updated
After 18 months, my Google WiFi is doing great. It provides a consistent and strong WiFi signal throughout my home and in my front and back yards. I almost forget about it, but it is always there. I tested another current (2018) system by Linksys, but it was not as consistently fast as my Google system. Get this - you will be happy with it.Original Review:Day One: Loving it... I have a two story home and use Comcast for my internet service provider. They provide a single modem / router which reaches most of my home pretty well. It is located upstairs in a front room of my home. Unfortunately, it doesn't do a tremendous job of reaching my downstairs office and is spotty in my back yard. I like to listen to my Sonos system when I'm by my swimming pool and it's always a 50-50 proposition if my phone can stay connected to my home network to control the Sonos. Occasionally, when I run backups, my backup program tells me that I have lost connection to the network drive. I have tried a couple of TP-Link range extenders and they help, but not overwhelmingly.After reading a TheWireCutter article on mesh networking products, I decided to try Google's WiFi system. WireCutter actually recommended Netgear's Orbi, but as I read their review and others, I concluded that the Orbi really isn't mesh at all..... it's just a really really strong WiFi router and repeater. I'm sure it works fine, but it is more money than Google's product and I wanted to try a true mesh network.I set the Google WiFi up this morning. It took about ten minutes to put all three units in play. I think it took longer for me to come up with a clever name for my new home network than to physically install the units. The app for the system is very easy to follow, in true Google fashion.I tested the WiFi signal throughout my house and compared it to my still functioning Comcast WiFi signal. Outstanding! In places where my old signal was wimpy, the Google system was pumping out a strong clear signal that permeated places in my back yard yet unseen by WiFi. Very impressive.Next: the fun part--- reconnecting everything in the house to the new WiFi connection and new network. I have a 26 port network switch which connect my two network attached storage drives, my television and DVD player and my beloved Sonos bridge. I ran an ethernet cable from the 2nd port on the main Google unit to the switch and hoped that it would instantly allow access to everything. Nope... everything still expected to be connected to the original network. So, I disconnected cable running from the Comcast router to the switch, waited a few minutes and then checked. That was all I needed to do for those devices to connect - just give the switch ONE connection the network running through the Google router.The next issue I encountered was that my Sonos system would run fine from my PC, but not from my android phone or tablet. In fact, it caused an issue where my phone and tablet would connect to my Google network, then disconnect, then reconnect. I couldn't get my Sonos app to control anything. I called Google's support line for this WiFi system to see if they could help. They gave me some good advice:- first, don't expect everything on your network to instantly recognize everything else. I've noticed in the past when I connect network devices, like NAS drives, they don't always connect for a few minutes. Sean, from Google support said that things might take a day or two to be fully integrated.- second, when something isn't quite right, power down your modem and your Google WiFi router - the one connected to your modem. Wait five minutes and then restart your modem. Give that about three or four minutes to fully come back to life, then power on your WiFi again. That can take a minute or so to fully reboot. When I did this, my Sonos system was fine and was fully controllable by my android apps.So, it's still early in the game, but I now have a really strong WiFi signal throughout my 3350 square foot house. I have a very good WiFi signal out by my pool. My network backups appear to be running much quicker and complete without interruption. I'll update this as things progress, but on Day One, everything seems to be better, faster and running just great.

Knocked out my Netgear Nighthawk X6
This is my second set that i bought, i bought one for myself from best but and i just order one on amazon for my daughter.I bought the Netgear Nighthawk X6 thinking it was going to fix my WiFi issues of not going to the back rooms of my co-op. I replaced two Apple AC Routers with the netgear, and it turned out that I had better reception and less interference with the apple routers. Almost every single day I had to reboot or changed the channel on the netgear and it drove me crazy, and their customer service support has no clue or gives you basic instructions that never helped, I ended up buying two extenders which were a big mistake as I always had to reboot something.After reading up on the Google wifi, I knew that this was what I needed, I bought the three pack and it turned out that I needed to use all three. And I have to say. AMAZING, a solid 215mbps throughout the house, and I have not had to reboot it once, I can walk to any room and still have the same signal and I love that.My house is full of HD streaming gaming junkies, I use my apple TV at times and I use my fire TV as well, I waited until everyone was home to test it out,my son was playing his on line game, both my daughters were streaming Netflix streaming different movies one on a tablet and another on an iPhone 6 plus. My wife was streaming a movie from amazon in the kitchen, I was streaming a movie on apple TV in the living room and not one drop. Everyone was streaming without issues, and that was beautiful.I really love the fact that I don't have to change channels as I live in NYC where there is so much interference and with the netgear I've always had to change the channels and with the Google not once, it seems to do it on its own and it always picks the right channels.Another amazing thing is it has a strong solid ethernet connection, what I mean about that is when I had ethernet connected with the X6 it was never stable, it fluctuated anywhere from 156mbps to 50mbps, with the Google it never drops past 156mbps which is amazing.Pros:no need for an extender, which means full mbps, because when you add an extender it drops mbps by half.It's beautiful, not that the X6 wasn't beautiful in a spacecraft kind of way.I love the user interface, it was so easy to set it up, I'm so use to picking a channel, or changing this or that with the net gear that it's a blessing to not have to touch it.I have tested this and love it, everything connects automatically to the other mesh devices, if I walk into the kitchen it changes from one mesh system to the next, not like having an extender where you have to go into your phone or tablet and change from the router to the extender and vice versa.Cons:Can't pick which bond to connect your devices too, I like to be able to connect streaming devices to the 5ghz, and with this you never know if your device is connected to 5ghz or 2.4ghz.As much as I love the user interface app, I wish they had it for the computer as well.With that said, I've used many routers, I've spent a lot of money on extenders and nothing ever worked like this unit, I'm amazed and finally satisfied with my wifi.Now, there are a lot of people who are leaving 1 star reviews on the speeds, at no point does Google claim that this can handle speeds above 300mbps. That is why those who have 1gb of speed are seeing 300mbps, those who have 1gb will need a router like the netgear X6 or x10 to handle such speeds, there is nothing worse than people buying something without researching, I guess those are the people who buy used cars without test driving them.If anything changes I will update, but so far I'm in love...I have to say, I spent exactly $630 on the netgear X6 and the two extenders and only spent $300 on the Google and am beyond happy and satisfied with it.

NIce Router--UPDATE
My initial impression of the Wifi System was wrong and I have upgraded it to a five star rating.After some tweaking of the placement of the three nodes included in this kit,, I find that the wifi signal is pervasive throughout my nearly 5000 sf home and is very strong even outside 100 feet away. On top of that, the system is rock solid and stable-- a consistent and powerful signal wherever I need it. I have gigabit service and wifi speeds are consistently 50MB download (though quite a bit slower upload) at most usable distances. Within a few feet of the router, I am topping 400MB!Not sure why it did not impress me at first. My only thought is that the system may take some time to configure how it connects itself to create the mesh.Very impressed now.++++++++++++++I like it but don't love it after a few days of use.Purchased Fios gigabit service-- which has been a huge disappointment because the only place you can get giga speed is right at the verizon modem. My house is wired with cat5 however cat5e is the protocol which provides reliable gigabit service. Best I could do on a hard wired setup was about 150 MB. WiFi is also not as robust--but I figured that mesh networking is the latest and greatest and worth a try.Very easy to set up, application is simple and quick-- I had the three wifi points included in the box up and working in a few minutes. One plugs into your cable modem's WAN port (generally a yellow outlet) with the included patch cord. The other two units are placed about a room or so away from each other to provide an area of consistent coverage.So it works. However the blazing fast gig speed is only available in a small circle around the hardwired unit plugged into the cable modem. The network is solid and fairly large throughout my house however speed at any of the other units drops off significantly and is only about 50MB or so generally.Now 50MB is substantially enough to do anything you want including streaming videos--however, I was looking to spread gig speed throughout the house and this device will not do that.I do have an Archer TP 7 wifi which is really substantially stronger and costs less than $100 bucks. Comparatively, the google wifi units provide a slightly more consistent field but over a lesser area. I can pick up a usable wifi signal from the TP7 more than 150 feet away-- at a point where the signal from the three google units are not even showing up on my device.SO... perfectly usable and lovely looking google wifi is neat and works-- but doesn't do much more than a cheaper but much more powerful regular modem.You would think that all of this would be second nature by now-- strong wifi wherever you need it doesn't sound like asking too much if you are willing to pay. However, it is not as simple as it looks and this device isn't pushing any envelopes in my humble opinion.

Google Wifi is Relatively Easy
I needed a wifi mesh system to extend my wifi across my 3 story home. I installed the base station near my office on the ground floor in the staircase. I then mounted the slave units in the staircase on the second and third floors. My home is all concrete floors and walls so it was always hard to get a signal around the house. Now with Google, it is just perfect. Installation and setup was relatively easy, but not as simple as just plug and play.

Molto soddisfatto
Facilissimo da istallare, funziona molto meglio di quanto mi aspettassi visto che alcune recensioni su youtube non erano al 100% positive. Con questo sistema ho collegato 3 router; uno collegato tramite cavo rete al router principale della casa, un altro nel soggiorno a distanza di 10m più o meno dove ho collegato lo smart TV, e l'ultimo al piano di sopra. Ho provato la connessione in tutti i punti e da 80Mbps al router principale, riesco ad ottenere 60Mbps al piano di sopra, sia con wifi che con cavo collegato direttamente al terzo router. Finora nessuno problema, e noto un netto miglioramento nel performance del smartTV. Unica cosa da considerare e che ho ricevuto spine americane al quale il venditore mi ha rimborsato il costo di 3 adattatori.

Excellent device
I have 1400 sqft house and 900 sqft office, both in different location. so i bought pack of 3, 2 for home and one for office. Started with home, a single unit covered my entire house (the router is almost in the center portion of house). My priority was to get break free internet all around the house and google is doing it pretty well. the features i use most1. Pause internet. Kids got tablet.also chromecast connected to TV. i can pause connectivity to these devices when needed. very useful if you don't want your kids to use internet when you are away.2. IFTTT. Google wifi suport ifttt. You can write rules when a device connect/disconnect. I get an email when my wife connects/disconnect wifi and she gets email when I come/leave home.3. Bandwidth usage : You can check on which device is taking most bandwidth.I haven't find any negative so far. I would love to give bandwidth limit to certain device.Like max 5Mbps to some device. I think the request is already gone to google and hope they come up with this feature.google wifi, google home ,google chromecast, philips hue works great together.

Excellent Wifi System for whole home coverage
Very easy to set up, requires only an ANDROID device to install the Google Wifi App, as it's NOT AVAILABLE in UAE APP STORE!! I'm personally using iPhone, but I installed Google WiFi App on an old Android device that I'm not using. All what I did, is connecting it to my Etisalat Main router with the Ethernet cable that comes with google router. Then following the set up steps on Google Wifi App. I didn't need to call a technician from Etisalat to do it because it didn't require to change any setting on the main router. It was really very easy to install all of the 3 wifi points. Now, the signal is very strong and the coverage is every where in my house. I simply don't regret my purchase!!HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!
