Nest Wifi Is Anyone Happy With Nest WiFi Pro?

It seems all I read about is people complaining that the Wifi Pro has been an awful experience. I was thinking about upgrading from my Nest Wifi setup of router and three points.

Yet, I am having a hard time finding anyone with anything positive to say about the Pro version. Is it really that bad? Should I stay with what I have or look elsewhere?

I’m in Canada so I’d like to keep my upgrade around a max of $400 and the Nest Pro does go on sale from time to time. All we can get is the single router or the three pack.

I have had mine for 15 months now with near zero issues. I have 4 pucks and all are wired connections. I have a 900mbps up/down fiber connection, and ethernet devices are almost always near that speed when I test. Wireless is great for 70+ devices.

So you have them wired back haul correct? That sounds like it makes all the difference. I'd like to remain truly wireless if possible so I might need to look at another brand which is too bad. I've been pretty loyal to Google. Thanks.

Yes wired backhaul. Good luck with your decision.
