Google Wifi Unboxing, Setup and Review
Today Google finally released to the world Google Wifi. In this video I share with you a Google Wifi unboxing, setup and review.
I have more to say about Google Wifi…
I assume it goes without saying (and so I didn’t really say it) that this mesh system allows for great whole-home coverage. Probably should have added that to the list of Pros… 🙂
Here’s a more detailed list of my Pros and Cons:
Pros:
- Easy Setup
- Handles many devices
- Whole-home coverage
- Simple maintenance via app
Cons:
- Limited setup options and features
- Limited LAN connections for hard wired devices
- Can only be controlled via Android or iOS apps
- Requires active internet to manage network
The price of $129 for one and $299 for three does not make it cheap, but within range of the competitors like Luma and Eero. Â Google lets you know that all three is not really needed for many homes. This is what they recommend for various sizes:
Seeing as how you can’t buy a 2-pack, I’d say pay the extra $40 to get a three pack instead of two 1-packs. Better to have more coverage than less.
That’s about all I wanted to add that I didn’t say in my Google Wifi Unboxing, Setup and Review video.
As always, I’m happy to answer questions or give tech advice. Feel free to chat me up.
