Google Wifi is the easiest and most manageable router we have ever set up, period. It could not be the most powerful or accurate controls, but that makes no difference in unmatched simplicity.
Update: Good news for UK users who patiently waited for Google WiFi, as it is now available to buy.
As peripherals like Netgear Orbi and Eero have shown us: routers and range extensions are complete. The future is a Wi-Fi or tri-band system. Of course, the Google, obsessed at home, is everywhere with the Google Wifi eponymous.
If so, Google may well have designed the best Wi-Fi mesh system to date. Google has managed to generate a system that offers more than a few competitors. The result? We never wanted to look at our walkway again.
We want to reinvent the router.
Price and Availability
Not surprisingly, Google does not ask for much money for what is offered. Google Wifi costs $ 299 (about $ 389 US) for a three-unit set - it's a primary "Wi-Fi" point (the one you connect to the modem or gateway) and two secondary WiFi points.
In the UK, Google Wifi comes with a set of two units that costs £ 229.
A single Google Wifi unit can be provided for $ 129 (£ 129, approximately AU $ 167). Google promises that three Wifi points can cover up to 418 square meters in a house.
Unfortunately, at the time of this writing, Google made no mention of pricing or available in Australia. However, when we talked to Google just before the UK, Google Wifi on a global scale in the future.
Google offers more units for less money than any competitor, such as the Netgear Orbi, with all other costs of at least $ 400 (about £ 320, AU $ 520) for the same amount.
Design and configuration
Not only does Google have the obvious advantage of pricing, but also the best-designed individual units and the simplest configuration of any offer. Each Google Wifi unit, a modest small cylinder with a simple white LED strip in its center, is capable of having the same functionality.
This Internet connection is not included in the price and is not included in the room rate. All three units are powered via USB-C.
The installer is as sublime as Google's hardware design, using a free iOS app and Android to facilitate the process. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us by phone or e-mail.
From there, the application tells you to name your network and set a password, and then the additional WiFi points and label them in the application for reference. Again, it takes seconds for the "router" to recognize the Wifi points and start broadcasting.
Netgear Orbi provides, so no tape will move for you. However, Google Wifi handles this in the background automatically.
However, the application offers many more useful features, such as constant monitoring of your network, points and connected devices. The Ookla is a computer-assisted Internet connection that can be used to connect to a computer.
You can also prioritize bandwidth on a device for a while, monitor intelligent smart devices, and pause Internet access to certain devices in a family setting - all in this application.
By far, it is the most complete and elegant suite of control parameters that we have seen since a Wi-Fi mesh system so far, despite the lack of drop-down boxes and scales.
Performance
We have seen just as impressive, if not better, the performance of the Google Wifi system because we have Netgear Orbi. Google Wifi makes the most of our 100Mbps Wi-Fi service that we can see from any room in our house, even if small.
We were able to broadcast a 4K video via Netflix to our Roku Premiere in the basement as well as in the basement. Wi-Fi mesh systems like Google Wifi do not focus on both throughput and coverage, but this product offers independently.
The Traffic Priority feature that lets you get the most out of your HD video.
In addition, the network can automatically repair itself if one or more of the Wifi points are accidentally disconnected or lose their power.
The Wi-Fi bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) on the 802.11 mesh protocol on the Netgear Orbi tri-band system which communicates on a second 5GHz Wi-Fi band, we did not find a terrible difference between The performance of one or the other. We do not want to miss a lot of music on the road.
The real advantage of Google Wifi compared to others is, quite simply, coverage for the price. You can get equal amounts of coverage in pure square images of competing systems with fewer units, but the versatility that offers you more units lets you ignore dead spots.
We liked
Google Wifi is incredibly easy to set up and manage day to day despite its lack of finer control. The fact that it is the only one of the two systems which are used for the purposes of the present invention. Finally, these units are even better in terms of design systems like Netgear Orbi, and are much easier to hide at sight.
We Disliked
Although there is a lot of information about Wi-Fi settings, it's not always easy to see what happens. Also, since it uses AC1200 technology, Google Wifi is not capable of the AC3000 or even the AC2200 rate that Netgear Orbi and Linksys Velop are respectively able to extinguish those who pay big for super fast internet speeds.
Final verdict
Google Wifi is the easiest router we have ever set up, period. And, taking into account the two additional devices required to complete it. For a reasonably priced price, Google offers more units than most competitors and the best configuration and management application away.
For all the finer hardware checks, Google lacks it, considers all the wheels and the test can present itself easily understandable through its application. (There is even a bandwidth priority control.) A couple that has an easy-to-find hardware design.
