Yes, that works

No, unfortunately not.

That is true, image 3 is the Nest WiFi point. You can tell by the holes along the base. This image is incorrect.

Yes, no problem, with the new Google Home app

Yes, that's exactly how I set it up in my network. I had already bought a set with a router and two access points and then added the same thing later. The router simply becomes the access point. The only thing to bear in mind is that the router is not a smart speaker. That's not a problem.

Hey I have 2 that I can't use as I've switched everything to unifi, drop me a line if you want to pick them up for free. thedronelog@gmail.com

Hello Anonymous, A couple of considerations: 1. two NATs in a row often do not work stably. However, both the Wingo router and the Google Nest have this switched on by default. The Nests need their own IP address management though, so that a mesh operation can work. Therefore, the suggestion to switch off NAT on the Wingo router (can also be called differently in the menu of the router) and to specify a fixed IP address. In this way, you switch off the actual router function. Leave the address assignment for the first Nest on dynamic ("NAT"). The second one must be set to "Bridge Mode". 2. on the cable side, you should connect a series as follows in your case: A) Wingo B) Nest (NAT) C) Nest (Bridge) If you want to connect additional Nest routers, you can either extend the row with further bridge modules or you can connect a switch (not a router!) between the first Nest and further Nest routers in bridge mode. In terms of cables, this would then be a star cabling. In any case, this works stably for me in the star.

The router must not be confused with the access point. The router does not have a loudspeaker. The access points do. Any number of access points (with loudspeakers) can be added to the router and, in addition to the loudspeaker function, also increase the WLAN.

According to various reports, this should work. But I have never tried it myself: https://blinqblinq.com/can-you-use-two-google-nest-wifi-routers-together/ The new version is supposed to come out soon. Either these will then be even cheaper here or buy the new ones straight away.

Hier Google Nest Wifi Point 1200 Mbit/s Weiß

Yes, that is possible.

1 router/base station and then number of repeater access points to expand the mesh. With this package you already have a router and a repeater, so you only need one additional repeater.

Hello I have a similar setup. 1. router as router behind the modem and 2. router in AP mode to which I have connected a switch to the LAN port. This works perfectly. Only in the Google Wifi app I don't see the devices that are connected via the LAN port. I find that a bit of a shame, but it still works reliably.

1) For sure you still have to use your xDSL router to convert sygnal to Ethernet. Google WIFI supports 1Gb/s connection. 2) Impossible to answer on this question w.o knowledge how your premice looks like, what materials used for walls etc. You have to check Test here on Galaxus to compare with own situation. For me it is improvement. Don't forget it doesn't supports WiFi6 yet!

Yes :) It's a set.

Digitec is obliged to supply electrical appliances with a Swiss plug. If the appliance is supplied with a foreign plug, a suitable replacement cable should be supplied if the mains cable is pluggable or, alternatively, a suitable adapter if the mains cable is permanently connected. If the appliance is delivered without a suitable plug, complain to the customer service and insist on a cable or an adapter, free of charge.

Yes, I have a UPC Giga Connect Box. You should set the UPC box to bridge mode, otherwise you will have two routers connected in series. It works, I had to do it once because for some reason a friend's VPN connection to his employer didn't work via Google Wifi and I couldn't figure out why. Sunrise, for example, does not offer bridge mode with your modem, you simply have to deactivate the wifi, otherwise in the worst case the signals will interfere with each other. If it works, bridge mode is the recommended way to attach the Google Wifi.

Hi - yes it will work, the you just need to connect the Google Nest via a LAN cable to the Salt router. Its not optimal - but it will work, I would advise turning all wifi configurations on the Salt router off. If you can convince Salt to swap their router for a modem it would be the best solution - but no idea if they will do it. The reason it is sub optimal is that you will run a through a double NAT, which in simple terms means you need to hop through 2 networks before you get to the internet. For normal web browsing - movie watching downloading etc. this is not a problem. But some more sophisticated services might not work or be degraded. Google support will also always blame the double NAT for every problem you have - even when its not related. Good luck!

I initially had problems with this during the setup because my router is also in the basement and it thought the devices were too far away from each other. But I was able to "outsmart" the setup by simply placing the access point next to the router and running through the setup. Then I moved the access point to the upper floor without any problems.

I ordered one from https://store.google.com/.

starting from a similar position (UPC Connect router, 90m2 / one floor) I have just installed this product; simply connected "Google Nest WiFi-Router" to UPC Connect router via LAN 1 meter away (no customization required); installed only one access point 2 corners away in last room of my apartment (position in-between inconvenient with my floor plan); resulted is a 3-bar signal in the entire apartment.

Short answer: Yes, you can build a mesh network with two routers. Long answer: I have two routers and one access point ;-) In addition to the router with my internet provider modem, which I operate in bridge mode, I need a device with a LAN connection in one room, so I decided to have a second router. The access points have Google Assistant and can serve as speakers (ask who needs this tinny sound), but unfortunately no LAN connection.

No

You can also use the existing router. Plug the LAN connector from the computer into the WAN connector of the Nest router and then use a new cable (approx. 2m in the package) from the LAN connector of the Nest router to your computer. This way you have WiFi in the house and everything else as usual. In addition, you benefit from better protection in the Nest router and have two firewalls for increased security (old and new router).

Why a new network? For such cases there are extra W-LAN repeats. these pick up the signal and amplify it. I would recommend a network mesh, which means that you expand the existing network so that your devices automatically jump to the best signal without interrupting the connection. e.g.: AVM FRITZ.Repeater 2400 WLAN Mesh International / CH

They say you can mix the older Google Wifi model with the new model. Personally, I would buy a Google Nest router, you can try it out and decide which device is the main Wifi router. You can't run a Nest access point as a router.

Yes

You can order Nest access points or Nest WiFi routers separately. Since the Nest access points unfortunately do not have a LAN connection, I would order a WiFi router if, for example, the devices in a room are to be connected via LAN. If everything is to run only via WIFI, then an additional Nest access point is sufficient.

The "Google Home" speaker is comparable to the "Nest Mini" (the product range is now called "Nest"), the "Nest Mini" only has a less powerful speaker. The "Nest Wifi" product includes an access point that is comparable to the "Nest Mini" but also includes the option of distributing the WLAN signal further. (by means of a mesh network).
