So have Google WiFi and with 3 total mesh spots (including base one hardwired connected to internet).

New house is a bit more spread out and there are windows where WiFi connection is not good.

I was about to buy another Google WiFi mesh for like ~$90 and see if the addition of that would work but reading that the Google WiFi mesh spots work with Google Nest. So I may get a ~$160 Google Nest Router has space the 3 existing Google WiFi mesh spots.

Thoughts?

Maybe. I guess it depends if you plan on upgrading some of the pucks eventually.

The nest wifi router has the better hardware and capable of better speeds. But if you are going to keep the old pucks with it, then I would imagine you'd be hampered by that anyway. So I'm not sure what utility you gain by upgrading the router in that instance.

Additionally it's the nest pucks that have the speaker/mics. The nest router doesn't offer any additional capability in that regard.

So might as well just get 1 more google WiFi or go all in on the Nest (would need 4 total)?
