5.0 out of 5 stars Decent single router buy for a small apartment, upgradable to a bigger network. MESH baby!!!!
Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2024
Bought this for my friends parents as an add on to their current Google Mesh system. So far have heard no complaints from them. My parents have this same system in their home and it works just fine. Auto updates itself, keeping with current settings and security. Pretty much a no brainer. (review posted 1-5-24) I don't know how long Google will support this Google Mesh router, my parents have had theirs for quite awhile, at least since COVID-19. The Google Home App, which deals with all your devices in your "smart" home, covers the routers with a basic but effective interface, test mesh strength, download speed, see current download usage, there's plenty of settings in there to tweak if you're a tweaker. Decent coverage for being such a small router, but i recommend upgrading to a dual or triple setup if you have a large house. My family has a large patio out back, four bedrooms upstairs, it's not absolutely massive, but a decently big older home, and three (3) cover it just perfectly, even in the basement. We have the router connected to the modem upstairs in a centrally located room, and the two "points" are located on the ground level on opposite sides of the home. Coverage on the patio is good, front porch is good. the house sits a bit back off the street, a smaller sized front lawn, but before the lawn ends the signal starts to drop off, and is weak at the street. its a pretty good setup, Thanks Google!! I don't have any headaches with it. have tons of devices connected. Occasionally a "point" will drop off, but usually this is after a power failure or some such, or an internet outage. Disconnect power from both Modem and Router. Wait at least five minutes. Trust me, if this doesn't work something else could be wrong. Then plug in the Modem, wait five minutes for Modem to cycle through its initialization start-up scheme. Typically you'll know this is done if after five minutes or so lights on the front of the Modem have stayed pretty much constant. Sometimes this takes longer/shorter depending on your equipment. Then after the Modem is settled plug in the power to the Router (Google Mesh Router AC1200) and wait another five minutes or so. After five minutes (approx)(sometimes much less) your network should be up and running. Reboot or restart equipment such as computer or iMac or whatever to ensure that everything is working well.

sorry got into a setup lesson. Google mesh is the way to go. You'll pay quite a bit more for fancier routers but these Google Mesh routers are decently designed good workers.

5.0 out of 5 stars As an IT professional for over 40 years, I have to say I am impressed.
Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2021
I had been an IT professional for over 40 years, and am now retired, but remain the IT professional for my household. In that time, I have had to set up many different routers to provide internet service for my home with multiple Alexa devices, Internet TV, and multiple PC's often running at the same time.

We have a large, 4500+ square ft., home with two stories and a basement. Our basement has 3 large rooms with concrete walls that have caused dead spots in most parts of the basement. Internet on the second floor works, but devices often need to be reconnect to establish a new connection. I have tried multiple internet extenders and access points that usually worked sporadically. Having to constantly reconnect them and reestablish a connect was frustrating, and I finally gave up on them.

I found out about the Google Mesh WIFI system and decided to look into them. I debated on the higher priced system that units include speakers and voice, but decided on this one since we have so many Alexa devices in our home. Another consideration was the cost of the upgraded system since 3 units costs 2 1/2 times more than this one. If you have a number of Google devices it may be worth the extra cost. All I wanted was a dependable WIFI system that would deliver WIFI to our entire house with no dead spots.

I am so happy that I chose this WIFI system. After I downloaded and installed the Google Home app, it took me all of 15 minutes to set up the system, and at least 10 of those minutes was used to find the best locations for the satellite units. The app really does it all. There was no setup of the ISP - it was just so simple anyone could set up this system with absolutely no knowledge of setting up a router. You don't have to fool with an internet connection to router software- it's all in the app. Just connect one unit to the Ethernet cable you would connect to the router and scan the QR code on the unit with your phone. After the router unit is connected, plug in the satellite units to electricity and select + at the top left of the screen in the app to add each satellite. I did notice that I had to wait until the light on the new unit stopped blinking and it was finished booting up before connecting. After all of the units are connected, you can check the connections of each and move the units to get the best connections to all of them. Since the Google Home app is also used for the upgraded system, there are a lot of options that don't apply to this system.

At this point, I couldn't be happier with this WIFI system. We now have fast internet in every corner of our house, including all of the rooms in the basement. I also tested the this system by taking one of my tablets out to the furthest end of our patio which is 60 feet from the router. I was still able to stream Netflix video with no lag. I should also mention that with this system and router, you don't have a choice on the connections between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The system automatically uses the 5 GHz connection unless the device is too far. Then it will automatically switch to the 2.4 GHz connection.

Knowing this is helpful if you need to initially connect a device that uses only 2.4 GHz. You need only to get far enough way from the router for it to switch the the 2.4 GHZ band. After the initial connection, the device will automatically connect to the 2.4 GHz band. When connecting a computer, you don't have to choose a band width, only your network name.

I am super happy with this WIFI system, and would highly recommend it. For the first time in years, we have internet service in every area of our house and for an extended area outdoors. Setup was so incredibly easy - so much easier than setting up a router. In addition, the WIFI signal is much better than ever before when checking it with the internet speed tests. Although we have been paying for 10 mbps download, previous to getting this system, our speed was 4-5 mbps. Now, we consistently get 7-9 mbps according to the speed tests. We watch internet TV and no longer have times the programs buffer. In addition, the TV doesn't cut out if we use the microwave. To-date, we have not had to restart any of the devices to get a WIFI signal on any of the 3 floors in our house.

UPDATE 8/10/21:
We have been using this system for over 2 months, and, to-date have not had to reboot any of the 3 modules. When watching TV (all internet apps), there has not been any buffering even when we use the microwave. The only minor problem I have had is in setting up a device that will connect only to a 2.4 GHz connection. Most peripherals now will use both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, so this usually isn't a problem. I did manage to get this device connected using the method described above. At this point, I am thrilled with the performance of this system. Since I am the techy in my house, this means less trouble shooting and less problems for me.

UPDATE 01/14/22:
We have been using this WIFI system for about 8 months, and I can now say that it is the best we have ever had. I have tried all of the "high-end" routers, and have never had the great connection to WIFI throughout the house that we have now. Since getting this system, I have rebooted the main router only once. With all other routers we have had, it was a regular thing. We use only internet services for our TV, and since getting this system, there has been absolutely no buffering problems. The WIFI signal reaches every part of our 3 story house, and our devices have not had to be reconnected because of connection problems. There are enough problems in life to spend time trying to resolve WIFI connection problems. It's so very nice to not have this problem anymore.

I hope this review was helpful for you. I will update this review if my opinion changes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty seamless to link up
Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2024
As much as I do not like Google Home, it did make adding this additional puck to my existing one pretty easy. You got to pay attention to which one you have because the new ones usually don't work with the older ones. So I bought the open box version from Amazon and have been very pleased with the increased performance, the ease in which I installed it, and how seamlessly it is integrated to create Wi-Fi over my entire house.
