- Model Number: GA03689-US
- Product Name: Nest Wifi Pro 6e AXE5400 Mesh Router (2-pack)
- Color: Snow
- Security
- Data Encryption: true
- Encryption Type: WPA2, WPA3 (The security protocols or certification programs that protect the Wi-Fi network.)
- Firewall Type: NAT (The method the firewall uses to filter and process data to increase network security, primarily by blocking malicious traffic requests while allowing legitimate traffic through.)
- Security Features: Parental Controls, WPA2, HomeShield, Automatic Updates, TLS
- Parental Controls: true (Allows user to block unwanted content, signals, channels, networks, etc. from being received or accessed.)
- Network
- Band Technology: Tri (Refers to the number of frequency bands used to wirelessly transmit an internet signal. For example, dual-band devices may use one 2.4 and one 5 GHz band, while tri-band devices may use one 2.4 and two 5 GHz bands. Multiple bands also provide more flexibility for designating connected devices to specific band use.)
- Ethernet Standard: 10/100/1000 (Each standard is a variation of the IEEE 802.3 set of computer networking technologies known as Ethernet. New versions evolved to include higher bandwidth, different physical media, and other new and improved features. Standards are often denoted by speeds (in Megabits per second). For example, a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port transmits at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps).)
- Number Of Connected Devices: 200
- Frequency Band: 2.4 GHz, 5.0 GHz, 6.0 GHz (Bands may be grouped into categories such as low- and high-band VHF (Very High Frequency), low- and high-band UHF (Ultra High Frequency), or certain frequency channels (measured in MHz or GHz). Generally, higher frequencies transmit information faster but have shorter range than lower frequencies.)
- Wireless Networking Standard: Wi-Fi 6E (The wireless networking standard used by the device. Each iteration of the standard developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance corresponds to an existing IEEE 802.11 protocol; for example, standard 802.11ac (or AC) is termed Wi-Fi 5. Refers specifically to the standard the device is designed to use, but ultimately determines product interoperability and backward compatibility including previous versions.)
- Wireless Standard: AX, AC, N (The wireless networking protocol used by the device. Each iteration of the protocol is based on the 802.11 standard developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards Association. Denoted by letters following 802.11 (802.11a, 802.11ac, etc.), each version, published in alphabetical order, encompasses all previous versions.)
- Wi-Fi Range: 4400 square feet (The device will provide a Wi-Fi connection to this approximate area.)
- Input/Output Technology: MU-MIMO (Multi-user Multiple-Input Multiple Output) (Generally, multiple-input multiple-output communication technologies allow for more signals to be transmitted at a single time, which can improve the device's overall performance.)
- Number of 2.4Ghz Streams: 2 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. Because the 2.4 GHz band is used to transmit wireless signals to a wide variety of devices, there is often high amounts of traffic on that stream. But with multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 2.4 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a desktop computer, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that use more data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Number of 5.0Ghz Streams: 2 (A router's streams are like lanes on a highway. The more streams a router has, the less traffic congestion. The 5.0 GHz band provides high speed, short-range data transmission and typically has less traffic than the 2.4 GHz band. With multiple streams, each can be designated to a specific device for optimal performance. For example, if one 5.0 GHz stream is assigned to one device, such as a streaming media player, it leaves the remaining streams open for guest users, devices that need less data, or devices with specific band compatibility.)
- Number of 6.0Ghz Streams: 2
- Wi-Fi Mesh System: true (A single wireless network consisting of a main router (connected directly to a modem) that connects to a series of satellite modules or nodes placed around the home. Routers with this capability promote stronger, faster wireless signals as well as increase Wi-Fi coverage by reducing interference and eliminating dead zones.)
- Number of Wi-Fi Satellites Included: 2 (Quantity of Wi-Fi satellite modules/nodes for a Wi-Fi Mesh System that come with the product.)
- Number of Wi-Fi Satellites Supported: 2 (Maximum quantity of Wi-Fi satellite modules/nodes that are able to be connected to the main router in a Wi-Fi Mesh System.)
- Wired Backhaul: true (Also known as Ethernet backhaul or backbone, this capability can be enabled to directly wire a secondary router or satellite to the main router via Ethernet cable. This connection allows for faster and more stable data upload.)
- Ethernet Switch: true (Connects multiple devices to expand the Local Area Network (LAN).)

- App Name: Google
- Beamforming: true (A signal processing technique that enables a router to focus a Wi-Fi signal in a specific direction. The router determines where a connected device in the network is located and projects a stronger signal in that specific direction. This can result in faster and higher quality data transfer as well as reduced signal interference.)

Whats Included
- 2 Power Devices
- 1 Ethernet Cord (RJ45 cable)
- Quick start guide
- Safety and warranty guide
A: Just be sure to use the same network name and password as the old router and based on my experience so far I believe it will connect seemlessly without any hassle. I don't have your exact situation but I have a bunch of different smart home devices and they all connected automatically without having to reconfigure everything.
A: Yes. When I first purchased my tv the wireless in it was dropping because it was connecting to the 2.4GHz. The only way around that was to buy a mesh node and wire the tv to that. It worked like a charm until my tv got an update. At that point it no longer needed to be wired to a node.
A: This includes 3 Nest Wifi Pro routers. All Nest Wifi Pro devices have routing capabilities with 2 Ethernet ports, you can choose to set up any unit as your primary router and connect it to your modem via Ethernet. Then, add the other Wifi points as your child point wirelessly to create a whole Wi-Fi mesh setup.

A: Gigabit. Vanilla gigabit.
A: Hello there, Ron. Thanks for your interest. Nest Wifi Pro requires to be connected to a modem with broadband internet connection from an Internet Service Provider (ISP). Check out this link for the setup requirements and guide: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9548301
A: Hey there. The Nest Wifi Pro is only a router. It does not have an integrated modem. You'll need to connect your internet service provider (ISP)'s modem to the Nest Wifi Pro to provide internet connectivity to your devices.
A: The 2nd one will be wireless. You can also plug a device without a wireless card into the network port on the 2nd device and have wired internet in that room also.
A: Great question, Lis. The Nest Wi-Fi Pro can cover up 2,200 sq ft per device. With a multi-story home, we recommend having one per floor to make sure you receive the best connection wherever you are. We also suggest a maximum of 5 routers for a single network. Adding more might be detrimental to Wi-Fi performance. Here’s a link with more information: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7182840
