Greater than one weekI was having a lot of connectivity issues with my last router and got this one to replace it. We have one in a 3 floor town home and have noticed a big improvement since the installation.

> 3 dayWere have been using this wifi system for several months now. It gives us excellent coverage in our 2300 sqft home and even covers most of our yard. Our wifi throughput is about 5x faster than before. I like that I can check, configure, and test the network from anywhere.

> 3 dayVery easy to set up and really nifty design. I love the mesh wifi concept, but............ I purchased this wifi system because my modem/router is at one end of a 70 foot wide home. I wanted to get a better wifi signal at the far end of the house, and I thought this setup would do the trick. One the the wifi points needs to be physically connected to the modem as a base unit. But when I set up the satellite wifi points at the far end of the house, I got a message on the app that the signal was less than ideal and I should move the wifi points closer to the base unit, preferably within 30 feet. To make this possible, I would have to move and reconnect the modem in the center of the house. I bought this with the intent of easily boosting my wifi signal, but my adjusting to the needs of the system turns out to be much more of a hassle than is worth it in my case. So I am returning the system and will probably invest in a single router with better range than the unit I have now. When prices come down and range improves, I will look at mesh setups again down the road.

> 3 dayYou cannot Print thru this Router with wifi unless you bridge !! If you have a firewall setup on your laptop, who doesnt ? With this WiFi system you have to ditch your trusted firewall and go with googles wifi. This is totally uncalled for. NAT is a simple thing, you send packets, it changes the ip and source port and sends it on its way. This is a tried and true service that has been around for 20 years, Google should know how to get it right and allow a printer to print. I sincerely hope they also change their NAT requirements, I do not mind my wifi not being on the same network but I can see no reason why they cannot just route instead of NAT, especially in a one connected hub scenario. Anyway I hope they fix this , make no mistake, this is a Google wifi, not a network setup problem.

> 3 day1st off it rocks. My house is about 3200 sq/ft with my Xfinity modem in my basement. I had tried several methods of getting wireless coverage throughout my whole house with mixed success. The best results were using a MOCA setup from Netgear but it caused issues with one of my cable boxes. I was starting to research the cost to have a run from my wifes home office, centrally located on the 2nd floor, to the basement and quotes were coming back at $1K plus. I decided to try the Google WiFi system for $300. Setup was really easy and the coverage is great. There are 3 units and Google claims it will cover a 4500 sq/ft home. I have 1 next to the cable modem, 1 on the 2nd floor, and 1 in my wifes office. I had range extenders in all of these locations so this was a pretty good comparison. Setup was very easy. You download an app to your phone, plug the 1st unit into your network, wait for the prompts, scan the QR code on the back of the units and you are online. From opening the box to finish was maybe 10 minutes. Coverage is great. Where I had dead spots at the far ends of my house I am at 75Mbps. Where I had coverage but at about 6Mbps I am limited by my 100Mbps internet connection. It uses Mesh so coverage is seamless. No more hopping between networks based on where I am in my house. I also get great coverage on my patio where it used to be totally dark.

> 3 dayIve had so many Wi-Fi problems thanks to crowded 2.4 & 5 Ghz bands, but Google WiFi finally solved the issue. Even when I had a problem with the modem/router gateway my ISP provided, Googles tech support was incredible. The rep I talked to stayed on the phone with me for two hours while we troubleshot everything and stayed friendly the whole time.
