Google WiFi System, 1-Pack - Router Replacement for Whole Home Coverage - NLS-1304-25,white

Apple has abandoned the wifi router market and I wanted to try these new fangled mesh networks. I read the reviews on various mesh systems and decided to give Google Wifi a try. I bought one on sale at another site which at the time was cheaper than what it was selling for here. I would have bought a second one at that time but they were out of stock. Hook up was simple and set up was super easy. I was up and running in about 10 minutes and a lot of that time was waiting for the cable modem to reboot. The companion Google App walked me through the whole procedure. I live in a (smallish) 2 floor High Ranch style home and the router was located on the 1st floor. This single router performed as well as the Airport Extreme it replaced. As with the Apple router, I would sometimes get freezes while streaming Netflix and the like on the second floor of my home. I ordered a second unit and using the app, was up and running in no time. Gone were the freezes I was experiencing while streaming. The units themselves are small and blend in to the room well. You just dont notice them after a time. A blueish light lets you know if the router if functioning properly and you can turn it off completely using the app if need be. These are dual channel routers so there is no dedicated backhaul channel which as I understand it, slows down the wifi speed of the satellite routers. I really dont notice this. The only problem I have had was the satellite router stopped functioning after a brief power outage. I did the normal reset but to no avail which forced me to call Google customer service. I only had a couple of minutes wait until a representative walked me through the procedure to get the satellite router back on line. Now only if Google would update this with a dedicated backhaul channel! Oh, you can have a wired backhaul channel.

Just got this set up and had to come write a review! Ive been struggling with the wifi in my new apartment for weeks since the router is upstairs, and unsuccessfully attempted to use a traditional extender. Googles wifi is fast and I am ecstatic! Will edit this later if I run into issues, but so far so good

I was really bummed when I realized that Airport Express was discontinued, my little workhorse of a router had been going strong for 10+ years. Looking for something similar I found this system by Google and I am glad I gave it a try. Set up was insanely easy, the little puck is unobtrusive and Im digging the app interface. Havent had any trouble getting signal throughout the house either. Heres hoping to getting a decade out of this little guy.

What can I say.. Money well spent! problem solve on covering wifi to my whole property with a plug and play setup. Other expensive garbage router has no match on how quick and effecient hardware/app this google is. A++ to this product.

I tried the new T-Mobile wifi but it was not compatable with my google Wifi system. I havd to revert back to my Cox wired system. The Google system required 4 extenders to cover my home but it really works. Would recommend Google wifi system.

Im a HUGE fan of this system! Google knows what theyre doing. Setup was easy. The app is very clear. The signal throughout my home is fantastic. I have used Apple Airport Extremes with Airport Expresses as range extenders in the past. The Google Wifi system is better in every area, in my opinion.

This solved a big problem I had. I have an attached apartment that is pretty far away from where my wifi router is. The Wifi signal was very poor in this place as there is 3 walls between the router and the point of usage. Before installation using the old wifi router (netgear, with an extender) I was getting 5 MBPS on a good day. After installation using Google Wifi Im getting almost 40 MBPS. Im also getting great reception outside the house ! Easy to install.

MEJORAN UN POCO EL SEÑAL

This system was easy to install, set up and use. Now we have wifi in our ENTIRE house!

It did not serve the purpose. I have great speed from xfinity. I needed help with stretching the area covered. Based on 1500 sqF house need, got only one. My signal strength has not improved other rooms. Needs smartphones since it requires an app. Of course the solution would be spend money on second one. But I feel deceived already that I don’t feel like wasting money again on another one. Just doing work from the primary room where the internet router is.
