Are both router’s exactly the same? The video cut just before you flipped the 2nd around. Does the Ethernet out port work on the router in the LAN isn’t feeding into it? I’d like to set up my security system in a different room with the 2nd pod.
If it is a satellite node (point) in question, the OUT and IN ports both function like a normal LAN port on a switch. Doesn't matter which one you connect your security system to.
No, you connect it to your Internet provided modem. Also no, it has the capability for 6e, regardless if your modem supports it or not. If it doesn't, you'll just be running at lower speeds.
I’m using the Nest Wi-Fi pro with my Sonos home theater and am experiencing all kinds of channel conflicts. Unfortunately google doesn’t offer the possibility to change Wi-Fi channel. Not enough customization options in this product.
@juandoe7802 because I already have a router and switch. It still allows me to access my media server. But some things I have that are wired, like my Nvidia Shield would not cast if I was on the wireless. I should have gone with UniFi or the Omada APs, but I got the two pack for $100 off and it was hard to pass up. I just don't know why they allow you to put one in bridge but not allow you to put more than one in bridge.
They're all separate routers with the ability to "mesh", so if you wanted to keep one and give the other to someone else, you can. They're standalone devices.
I still get confused as to the 2 rooms apart and how to set this up with a 2 story home. When I worked with support they also advised that a single unit should cover the square footage /I have but a current plain router does not cover well due to the building hardware I have. So I still don't know how, where or best place to position. I wish the app offered a suggestion for signal quality and or suggested placement once its established connection from the first unit. Any suggestions or help since they have that 2 room separation advisement especially with multiple floor architecture?
its easy. just set up one receiver for each room that the router is not in. the next receiver will always talk to the closest one you setup before it. They generally all work together throughout the house to eliminate blind spots and give you the maximum bandwidth depending on your activity. ideally its best to position them in best line of sight to each other but if they are just in the next room from each other theyll go through a wall fine. i live on the third floor of my unit block and coverage easily reaches the ground floor until you walk out of the building. with two receivers the older version covers about 4800 sqft. if your property is big just buy more receivers for each room. upstairs will easily communicate with downstairs rooms and vice versa. plug your main nest router into your actual router via an ethernet cable, and then your main PC into the nest via ethernet. connect all your wireless devices to the nest wifi. enjoy super fast internet. sucks for me. i got the earlier wifi 5 version today and now theres a wifi 6 version out.
@@happinin They warn about over coverage and causing interference added too soon.. If I added a unit in each room I would be looking at a fortune. I have thoughts on where to place to optimize but ten again 1 unit is to cover supposedly the square footage, bt that's the house alone andneedto readh out ffurther. I just wish here was a tool to suggest placement In the app or setup process.
@@iNexxFear nothing seems to cause interference for me and im surrounded by units each with wifi. if there was a tool for placement that would be awesome. actually a pretty good idea. But yeah unfortunately thats the way those things work. each node to a room apparently. or at least one on each side of the house. i would just test with my phone to see how far you can push it before it goes to a blind spot and then just put the next satellite there for optimal range.
I would put them about two rooms apart, even across floors. If you have too many you will oversaturate the signal and they will cause interference with each other. More is not always better. Don't put them too close, but don't put them too far either. About two rooms apart is great.
So what I'm understanding is these guys are wifi extenders that create access points in a hard to reach area of the house. So the router goes on the main floor. And 2 of these guys for basement and upstairs.
I have the nest pro and have it set up other than the second one wont connect. It is not far away but continues to pulse white. I am a grandmother and do not find this easy to do!!
Why do a unboxing and not show BOTH front and back of each one? You bothered to show the side of the darn box but not the actual devices front and back?!
Just installed it yesterday. Game changer! Highly recommend.
Same. My internet improved immediately.
Thanks. I have the original Google Wi-Fi Mesh system. Still works good.
That orange solo braid 🔥
Does this new one let you prioritize like the last version ?
Let's go!!!! Awesome review bro!
YESSIR!!!

So, you have to connect the system to the internet provided router, which I guess also needs to be a 6e system?
No, you connect it to your Internet provided modem. Also no, it has the capability for 6e, regardless if your modem supports it or not. If it doesn't, you'll just be running at lower speeds.
I have to re boot mine every couple of days as the speed slows down to less than 50 MBS
So if you walk out of range from one of the nodes does it automatically connect to the other node?
Just found your channel, awesome work…
You dont have to connect it to a modem or whatever?
GoogleWifi😈🔥
How you know?

Yeah, Sonos and Google don't play nicely together in general. It's really a shame
@@kinburn1015what works best with sonos?
Only issue i have is you cant have 2 mesh points in bridge. Have to have one as nat and the mesh as bridge. I wished it had a little more options.
What do you need it to do that for?

Mine gets warm . Should I return it.
Are they bought the same? Can I buy 2 packs and give one to a friend or do they only work together?
They're all separate routers with the ability to "mesh", so if you wanted to keep one and give the other to someone else, you can. They're standalone devices.
What is the powerconsumption on these devices, i cant be true they uses 22W each?
That would the rating of the psu, so yeah, in reality much less

So you need a Internet provider to do it
Of course
You need one for all mesh systems

Not showing if you can use this without your IPS router.
You need to use your ISP modem so if it is modem/router combined then you need to use it
I have a typical standard router...
May be time to upgrade fam bro? Or should i say? Salvadorian.eth?
