Finally Did It. I drilled vent holes in my Google Wifi Pro 6e's.

So after almost 6 months of dealing with having to restart the network when it would drop to 10Mbs, when it should be getting 400Mbs. I opened one up and looked at where I could drill vent holes, made a masking tape template and then drilled all 6 of my units. The outcome.... 2 weeks without having

Advantages of using the IOT network vs assigning devices to 2.4ghz?

I have seen no degrade in performance on my Deco compared to my previous Nest Wifi Pro setup. As they're wifi signals coming from the same device, they'll be better at controlling the radio spectrum to avoid interference. The interference happens when another network is on the same frequency / chann

Slow Wi-Fi on new 500/50 plan, but wired speed is fine. Is my modem the bottleneck?

The router you have is 802.11ac, or WiFi 5. What you're seeing is pretty typical for a router like yours, given its internal antenna and the walls in between. The 1300 Mbps number is an overall theoretical, not a per-device speed, so your PC is completing on that pipe with all other WiFi devices in

Townhouse Network Setup

You shouldn’t be getting different answers depending on whom you ask, because given what you describe, using the existing Ethernet to improve your WiFi around the house is an absolute no-brainer, and if the installing technician saw that you had Ethernet he should have said so. The good news is that

Nest Wifi Pro - nothing but problems. Google Wifi was fine for years.

Try this suggestion: In the Home App, if you go into Wifi \ Settings \ Preferred activities, is Video conferencing checked? If so, uncheck it and restart the network. I've found this one setting to really lower network speeds. I found it in this post and it did help. https://www.reddit.com/r/GoogleW

iPhone 13: really poor wi-fi reception.

iPhone 13’s WiFi specifications are Wi‑Fi 6 (802.11ax) with 2x2 MIMO. So if your WiFi router is older and not up to WiFi 6 standards, it won’t have the best WiFi connection that it can have. If your wifi router doesn’t support WiFi 6, I’d upgrade to a new model, you should get improvements in connec

IKEA bilresa Threads Border router?

Smart home stuff always feels weirdly emotionally draining to me because every article makes it sound simple till u realize your missing one tiny piece of hardware that changes everything lol. From what I understand though, a google nest hub/gen 2 or nest wifi pro should work as a thread border rout

How do you manage new router?

The nest wifi pro is managed from the google home app. If it’s already set up and you don’t see it on the app, it was set up on another account and youll have to factory reset it (if you don’t have access to the other account). If it’s not set up, let it boot for a min or two, and hit add new device

2.4 ghz is the strongest connection?

Get a mesh network extender if you want the reach for the 5g network. I have a Nest WiFi pro with 3 points and have great coverage in my 1500 square foot house.... 2 of them upstairs and one on ground level.
