About Google Nest WiFi Pro - 6E - Reliable Home Wi-Fi System
Overall Feedback:
66% positive
64% praised the intuitive app, but 36% struggled
I have praised the Nest WiFi Pro app for being significantly better than the Linksys app, offering a more intuitive and reliable user experience.
Setting up is easy, but configuring afterwards is difficult due to the Google home app.
75% praised the coverage area, but 25% found dead spots
The mesh wifi system provides more than enough coverage for my 1700 square foot home and I even get decent reception in my backyard.
Google Nest WiFi Pro provides whole house coverage with great stability, even with multiple people streaming movies and youtube videos on their own devices while I work in my home office.
My old WiFi had better coverage than the mesh WiFi system.
I have a 3 pack with one on each floor of my 4000 sqft house. However, speeds are no better than before with just my Xfinity gateway/router. It seems that the coverage area is not as expected.
63% liked the customizable settings, yet 37% found them limited
The app of Nest WiFi Pro is the most commendable feature.
There is a lag in the app when changing settings, causing delays in the process. The device and app take time to refresh and show the actual settings.
I am unable to connect devices with WPS and cannot find QOS settings.
I have to reset the system almost daily to maintain a decent speed.
72% found it easy to set up, while 28% had trouble
The setup process was incredibly easy and I had everything back up and running in about 20 minutes.
Setting up was easy, but it was the only positive aspect.
Setting up is easy, but configuring using the Google home app is difficult.
Setting up the whole-home-mesh-wi-fi-system was painful, especially when I had to redo all my smart devices on the network from the ground up, including Google/Nest devices.
63% liked the ability to support many devices, but 37% didn't
I have two devices that only work with 2.4g and I am unable to get Google Wi-Fi to work with them.
I have 3 devices that can use wifi 6E but none of them are using it.
I faced a problem with the network as my iOS devices would drop connection even though the network was seen in settings.
My iOS devices kept dropping connection even though the network was visible in settings.
69% appreciated the performance, but 31% experienced issues
The performance of our new system is considerably worse than the earlier Google Nest system.
The performance of Nest WiFi Pro is inconsistent in maintaining steady speeds, even on stationary devices. However, it doesn't suffer from dead spots.
I had to ask my ISP to run a new line and install a new modem because the mesh network was giving me very bad performance, even my wired connection that was wired directly into the main router node was giving me very bad performance.
66% were impressed with the security features, although 34% weren't
I have noticed that Nest WiFi Pro has some unique features, but also some drawbacks.
The firewall controls are limited.
