![]() The end result is that now I still have the speeds that I’m paying for, my connection is solid 3 bars all over the house, all 5 pucks have great connection, and I get speeds from 75 furthest away to 300 on the top floor. Then add them back one by one starting with the router in the top floor office. Then to be sure factory reset each one using the physical button. Then factory reset them all from app to erase them from my home. Add all the new pucks and router to my mesh get them updated. So what I had to do was essentially do the setup twice. After the restart the speeds were broken. I noticed the turning point was when during the process there was an update to the new devices and then a restart triggered. It all went to hell again after that point. I felt I found the sweet spot again so I decided to pick up nest wifi 3 pack router + 2 AP, to replace my google wifi. Same thing stable high speeds.Īfter a week, no restarts or anything, I then added back my switches to add more hard wired devices and again speeds were still like I had initially tested. I made sure all devices were stable and connected for a couple hours then proceeded to add the 2nd nest router on the 2nd floor. Wired to the router I was at 700-800mbps which to me is very acceptable and good. Wifi I was getting between 75 (in basement furthest away) to 200 on main floor, to the office on top floor 300 mbps. Then I added one router and basically ran the whole house internet through it testing using speedtest in different parts of the house as well as at my pc connected to the router. Then just to be sure I factory reset again on the actual devices using the physical button. I had factory reset everything by going into the app which ensured the removal from each of the rooms. What finally worked was removing the google Wifi pucks and switches and running on 2 nest routers only. So reading through weeks of posts I tried all sorts of methods of moving pucks, removing the dlink unmanaged switches, restarting factory resetting etc. ![]() While I was frustrated I did not want to give up on Google as I do appreciate the implementation into google Home and do like the ease of use. (To me that speed directly connected to modem is ok since I know the coax in my house is a old - 60+years). I was experiencing the same problem as you slow speeds but connected directly to modem 875mbps for a gigabit connection. Based on practical experience and knowing the weird corners and shapes for the longest time this setup worked.įast forward to this latest ‘broken’ update. Before you say that is overkill I do agree and yes I did read the post and then saw that my house should be able to do with less. So my original setup was 3 wifi 2 nest router in a 3000sqft house across 3floors. Could that be what I'm experiencing and it just happens to be I noticed this at the wrong time? I'm seriously at a loss here! The problem is I didn't buy it retail, I bought it online from an individual, so there's no way I can return it or exchange it.ĭoes this sound like a defective router? Am I just out of luck? Any advice would be really appreciated!Įdit: I know about the latest firmware causing issues. My hardwired speeds are what you'd expect, they range from 830-960 depending on the time of day.Īfter having our provider come out and test a few things, and I've spent countless hours over the past two weeks trying to figure it out myself, I've come to the conclusion there must be something wrong with the nest router. However, I upgraded to 1Gbps connection and reconfigured my whole network, but still getting really slow speeds over wifi.I also discovered it's not just to the in-law unit that has those speeds, but also in the main house, even within a few inches of the main router. At the time I was only paying for 275Mbps, so when I was getting wifi speeds of 50-60 to the in-law unit, I didn't complain too much, as the distance is pretty far. Okay, so the long story of it is I bought the nest router to add to my google wifi setup because I needed a stronger signal to an in-law unit out back. Is the router defective? Could there be another issue I haven't figured out? ![]() TL:DR: Paying for 1Gbps connection, getting 900 hardwired (thru nest router), but wifi never gets above 120Mbps even within inches of the router and drops to 50Mbps or less after 2 nodes. ![]()
