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

I am a die hard Apple fan whom I own multiple Apple devices at home including Apple Airport (Express and Extreme). Unfortunately, Apple Airport Express/Extreme (I have 5 of them) constantly have signal drop off issue and they all RIP after only about 1.5+ years usage. It finally push me to the point to try out competitors offering. After reading countless reviews on Google WiFi mesh network, I finally bought a set of 3 Google WiFi from Amazon. Holy monkey, Google WiFi setup is super easy, I setup all 3 in under 20 minutes. (1) I download the Google apps, (2) connect one Google WiFi to the cable modem, (3) turn off home cable modem wait a bit, (4) power on the cable modem, (5) power off Google WiFi and wait a bit, (6) power on Google WiFi, (7) use apps to scan Google WiFi unique QR code, (8) once it is detected by the apps, (9) follow the usual procedures to name the Google WiFi network and password, (10) done that it!!!!!, (11) for the rest of 2 Google WiFi, setup is as easy as position them good spots in home to maximize the mesh network coverage then scan the QR code, (12) done thats it!! Sadly to say, it is hell lot easier to setup than Apple Airport Express/Extreme. With the Google WiFi apps, I am able to monitor and test mesh network performance. I have yet to try both the Guest and Family network setup yet, but trust me I will try them very soon. Apple, you certainly drop the ball on this one big time and I am extremely disappointed of your treatment to Airport/Extreme product. Now I am sold on Google WFi, and I just order another set of 3 Google WiFi to further enhance my in home WiFi perf! Thanks Google (I can not believe I say it!!)

We moved to a fairly large older home and had some issues with our old router reaching the entire house. After purchasing this system, I find that in some ways it is worse. I like the app and the ability to test various parts of the network and even prioritize a device for a period of time. What I dont like is that I still have slow internet and no capacity to change channels or to manually select 5 GHz. It is supposed to marry 2.4 & 5 GHz together allowing your device to connect to the best fit, but all mine seem to be running on 2.4. Also, after downloading a wifi analyzer, I can see that it is selecting the worst channel (149). My speeds are very inconsistent. I am not tech-savvy enough to deal with this nor do I want to. Much regret.

Have two sets of these now, software and discovery of what on your networks and ability to see and adjust is fantastic.. highly reccomended

The Google Wifi system was extremely easy to install. It has also cleared up all of the dead spots in my house with excellent speed at all locations.

Easy to install, easy to manage using an app on your smartphone, very stable in environment where there are a lot of competing WiFi networks, and great range. I highly recommend the Google WiFi system for all these reasons. A big plus is that with the app I can manage more than one Google WiFi system. For example, I have one setup at my mothers house as well and I can go into the app and easily switch to her WiFi system and manage it from anywhere that I have internet access.

Love the user interface and how easy it is to use. only con is the ethernet port is a pain to get to also wish i could access it from a web browser like any other router but its app or nothing

It has made a tremendous difference in my Wifi performance. Worth the money.

We’ve tried so many routers before this one and this one is by far the best. We absolutely love this WIFI system!

Super easy setup and strong signal!

Hooked it up. worked 1/2 a day and then took my entire system down. Now, none of my network works. With our without the Google wifi. There is no info on the packaging so you cannot trouble shoot. It is maddening. If your wifi isnt working, you cant use the app to troubleshoot. They tried to make it so easy and simple and ended up making an impossibly tech-y product even harder to use since if it goes down, it also ensures your main wifi network will not work as well. Google doesnt warn you of this or give you troubleshooting info on how to fix the issues. Packing up and shipping back for a refund. Beautiful packaging, lovely product design, no tech support or help and no trouble shooting as it takes down your system. Ill have to call my internet company and have them try to figure out my regular system to get my network working again.
