How a Nest Wifi Pro Mesh Network Works
Mesh Wi-Fi connects multiple Nest Wifi Pro points to create a single, seamless network throughout your home. Your devices automatically stay on the fastest available channel, which helps expand coverage and reduce dead spots. You can connect up to 4 points total.
Nest Wifi Pro can’t be combined with Wi-Fi 5 routers — like Nest Wifi or Google Wifi — in the same mesh network.
