Google Wifi system (set of 3) - Router replacement for whole home coverage

I have 1400 sqft house and 900 sqft office, both in different location. so i bought pack of 3, 2 for home and one for office. Started with home, a single unit covered my entire house (the router is almost in the center portion of house). My priority was to get break free internet all around the house and google is doing it pretty well. the features i use most 1. Pause internet. Kids got tablet.also chromecast connected to TV. i can pause connectivity to these devices when needed. very useful if you don't want your kids to use internet when you are away. 2. IFTTT. Google wifi suport ifttt. You can write rules when a device connect/disconnect. I get an email when my wife connects/disconnect wifi and she gets email when I come/leave home. 3. Bandwidth usage : You can check on which device is taking most bandwidth. I haven't find any negative so far. I would love to give bandwidth limit to certain device.Like max 5Mbps to some device. I think the request is already gone to google and hope they come up with this feature. google wifi, google home ,google chromecast, philips hue works great together.

Wow product is really great my full house is now covered with good wifi signal at my room first with wifi extender I used to get 15-20 Mbps speed now with google wifi it’s 60Mbps.in my dining hall before I used to get 10 Mbps Speed now with google wifi I get 35-45Mbps Speed.Really happy

I am unfortunate to live in an apartment in Delhi which, due to its design, poses several challenges for wifi usage thanks to the placement of the wifi cable into the home. For years I struggled to get consistent signals and coverage in my 2250 square foot apartment, primarily because I could not get clear line of sight between my primary router and the extender. Instead, I found myself buying stronger routers and extenders, this racking up the cost. The google wifi removed all of these issues and is a worthwhile investment. Setup is a breeze with the android app, and coverage across the home is spotless.

Overall product quality is good

great router; solved my issues in getting wifi coverage in whole of my house; not a single issue since installation; smooth switch over from one device to other. only con : non availability of GOOGLE WIFI app in App Store; have to depend on an Android Phone for using it

Excellent product it’s value for money. Earlier We had Apple Airport Extreme and Air port Express. This product is better.

I tried many routers and this seems to work best in my house.

If you have thick walls I would suggest looking elsewhere. I have had to purchase five of these for a 1500 sq ft area and the drop out is appalling. 200 mbps line is down to 30 mbps on the far side of the apartment even with 5 routers. Not ideal

I needed a wifi mesh system to extend my wifi across my 3 story home. I installed the base station near my office on the ground floor in the staircase. I then mounted the slave units in the staircase on the second and third floors. My home is all concrete floors and walls so it was always hard to get a signal around the house. Now with Google, it is just perfect. Installation and setup was relatively easy, but not as simple as just plug and play.

Google Wifi Review TL;DR version: 48 hours in and I’m absolutely amazed. True to form and other reviews, these things just work, are rock solid, and fast. Very happy with the purchase. The longer version for those interested…. Background: A while back I got gigabit speed internet here at home. The speed is amazing on my wired iMac, but wifi through my Apple AirPort routers (1x AirPort Extreme, 3x AirPort Expresses acting as repeaters) was leaving something to be desired. Comcast had given me a big Netgear Nighthawk monstrosity as part of the gigabit package and when I tried it out vs. the AirPorts the difference was night and day - the Nighthawk wifi network was multiple times faster than the AirPort network. Come to find out my trusty AirPort network didn't support the newest, latest, greatest wifi standards so simply wasn't as fast as the Nighthawk. And Apple has apparently decided to get out of the router game. The Problem: To take advantage of the greater speed, I reconfigured my network to support both the higher speed Nighthawk wifi and the lower speed AirPort network. Why keep both? Because the single nighthawk didn't have enough range to cover my three story, 4,500 sq.ft. house (and the now hard-wired 1,000 sq. ft. guest house) while the multiple AirPort expresses did. So now I had two completely different wifi networks running at two different speeds covering different parts of the house. Not ideal, especially now that I'm more reliant on wifi for my iPhone (T-Mobile's signal in the house isn't great, so my wife and I have been using the really excellent wifi calling feature.) The Solution: Today I replaced ALL my routers with four Google Wifi units. The primary wired into the Comcast modem in the office (downstairs), one for the Master Bedroom (2nd level, mesh), one for the guest bedroom (kind of a separate split level thing off to the side, also mesh), and one for the Guest House (hard wired to Ethernet run from the main house). The primary unit connects to a gigabit switch that then connects to several wired devices. The Verdict: Only two days in, but so far I'm thrilled. The Google Wifi units form a mesh network that seems to cover my entire house in strong wifi. I haven’t found anywhere in my oddly shaped and sized house that i’m not getting flawless wifi. Some places are “faster” than others, but even in the “worst” spots I’m still getting at least 40Mbps which I’m not going to complain about. At best, I’m getting 200+Mbps, which definitely isn’t full gigabit but is leagues better than I could get from the AirPorts and on par with the best I’d ever gotten from the Nighthawk… while covering both houses with a single, uninterrupted network with great signal in every room. Setup was stupid simple and completely done from the iPhone app. Haven’t had a chance to really play with all of the cool features (internet pause, etc.), but the core functionality is fantastic. I was slightly concerned about functionality since it’s a Google device and we’re all-in on Apple gear (3x Macs, 2x iPhones, 4x iPads, etc.), but almost everything has worked flawlessly (the only glitch was, ironically, with the now Google-owned Nest Thermostats I have - the trick is to reset the network settings on the Nests and re-enter the new wifi info). Every device, wired or wireless, has worked beautifully and the speed is phenomenal. (As a note and as a point of comparison, I had been a pre-orderer for the Luma mesh wifi system and had briefly tried that out when it finally shipped. I had been greatly looking forward to it and was so disappointed when the units finally arrived. Setup was a nightmare - the stations couldn’t find each other requiring starting over, but then I entered a slightly different name during the process and then it tried to set up two networks, the coverage was bad, and on and on… The Google Wifi units are everything I had hoped the Luma system would be and more.) Downsides: Honestly, none that I can really tell so far. I’ve long since given up on caring about being able to tweak every little power user setting in a router, so the options offered by the Google Wifi app more than take care of my needs. It was a little confusing when I hooked up the Guest House unit (wired into Ethernet) as a wifi point because it asked me to unplug the ethernet during configuration but then didn’t really give me any guidance, but it still flawlessly added the unit to the existing mesh network (but now with ethernet backhaul). Placement in my house was a little bit of a pain, but that’s just my house being weird - since you just have to plug in wherever there’s a power outlet it’s about as painless as it can be. Final Thoughts: If anything changes or something wonky happens I’ll update this, but otherwise I wholeheartedly recommend Google Wifi. Buy it you’ll love it!

Facilissimo da istallare, funziona molto meglio di quanto mi aspettassi visto che alcune recensioni su youtube non erano al 100% positive. Con questo sistema ho collegato 3 router; uno collegato tramite cavo rete al router principale della casa, un altro nel soggiorno a distanza di 10m più o meno dove ho collegato lo smart TV, e l'ultimo al piano di sopra. Ho provato la connessione in tutti i punti e da 80Mbps al router principale, riesco ad ottenere 60Mbps al piano di sopra, sia con wifi che con cavo collegato direttamente al terzo router. Finora nessuno problema, e noto un netto miglioramento nel performance del smartTV. Unica cosa da considerare e che ho ricevuto spine americane al quale il venditore mi ha rimborsato il costo di 3 adattatori.

OK, c'est ENCORE un produit Google, et alors ? C'est enfin simple à mettre en place un wifi de qualité et d'une efficacité redoutable. C'est aujourd'hui le produit de Google que je recommande le plus.

Very easy to set up, requires only an ANDROID device to install the Google Wifi App, as it's NOT AVAILABLE in UAE APP STORE!! I'm personally using iPhone, but I installed Google WiFi App on an old Android device that I'm not using. All what I did, is connecting it to my Etisalat Main router with the Ethernet cable that comes with google router. Then following the set up steps on Google Wifi App. I didn't need to call a technician from Etisalat to do it because it didn't require to change any setting on the main router. It was really very easy to install all of the 3 wifi points. Now, the signal is very strong and the coverage is every where in my house. I simply don't regret my purchase!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!
