Google Nest WiFi Pro - Wi-Fi 6E (Open Box)

The only reason why I am upgrading is because my IPS gave me deal for 1 GBs. I had 200 MBs and that was more than enough for me. I had Google Wifi (gen1) for about 5 years. No problems except I had to buy extra pod to strengthen the signal (i live in condo and i have brick walls). So the signal from my balcony room (storage with concrete walls) was poor to my office. I bought nest wifi and everything was working good (connection was great / good) between nest wifi (router gen2) to 2 google wifi (gen1). I notice that after I got 1 GBs from ISP my speed was still the same 100 MBs on wifi. When I disconnected gen 1s (routers) my speed next to router (testing on iphone 14pro) was 560 MBs. If I would probably just switch my old 2 google wifi (gen 1) to Nest Wifi (gen2) I would be just fine. But since I live in condo I was like let me try that new 6Ghz. So I bought Nest Wifi Pro 3pk. Signal between 3 of them is great. If I would just use 2 it would be “Good signal”. I live in 1500 sqft apt, but my main router is basically in concrete storage (maybe I will drill a whole and put that router inside apt and give update). Speed next to Nest Wifi pro (gen3) router seems to be the same as Nest Wifi (gen2) what I am trying to say is I wouldn’t upgrade if all my previous pods were Nest Wifi (gen2). I wouldn’t expect more than 600 MBs on this routers based on my research online. What I like about google is steady speed, and they are upgrading software for this Nest Wifi Pro (so in future it will get better) Wifi speeds: Shed 500-600 MBs download / 22 MBs upload wifi speed Workout Room about 300 MBs Office 150-300 MBs Overall I don’t play a lot of games. Tried for CS 2 and ping was good, no lags in game. Streaming videos for 6hrs no buffering problems. Overall: If are upgrading from Google Wifi yea thats upgrade. I would not suggest upgrading Nest Wifi (only if you experience network problems or want to see if wifi will be stronger but I don’t see this wifi hitting more than 600 Mbs). Who needs more than 1 GBs internet. Design: I don’t really care about it but looks like nice stone (gen3). If its goes about power connector I am not a fan of it. Gen 1 had better in my opinion because if you connect to multiple plug connector it easy. Missing: Nest WiFi pro use 1 GBs Ethernet/WAN speed (that wire entry) while competition use 2.5 GBs Ethernet/WAN speed. On the other hand who use Ethernet anymore? Gaming desktops and maybe playstation. But going forward I believe it will be all Wifi at some point. Signal: Seems to be better than Google WiFi (gen 1 and gen 2) Software: I had recently update on this which means google is working on this router. Maybe It will get better in future. Installation: Very easy on Google Home app. If you use the same wifi password and name, all your devices will connect automatically. However 3rd took me about 5 tries but finally was added. Price: Very Good compare to others. If you need 4pk see costco. Update from 14 January 2024: I found that moving modem and router from my storage/heating closet to open (without obstruction of concrete/brick walls) inside apartment made increased speed of 400-600 Mbps per second. The farther away pod goes 400+ Mbps. (On 1gb internet for comcast) I don’t see any issues with this system. I changed my 4 starts to 5 stars.
