The Nest Pro’s radios support tri-band frequencies including the newest wifi 6E - which is, in theory, blazingly fast, but does require 6E compatible devices and high speeds from your internet service provider (ISP). The units are the size of a large cup, which makes them easy to place where needed, and they won’t stand out any more than a typical smart speaker. Some manufacturers offer bundled security products and packages under a separate subscription, which are noted in the roundup below.Īs you might expect from Google’s latest mesh wifi system, the understated Nest Pro packs quite the technical punch in a glossy, pebble-like shape that won’t be an eyesore once installed around the home. Although home network security is a key consideration, the team didn’t specifically test security beyond noting whether controls were available or not. We used mobile apps – if available – to ease the setup process, and then tested the resulting network for speed with a variety of real-world tasks, such as streaming video, internet browsing, and light gaming. The systems were set up in a three-bed Victorian terrace house, which offers a good testing yardstick combination of size, older, thicker walls, and awkward spaces that suffer badly from poor wifi reception with the standard type of internet router you would get from the likes of Virgin Media, Sky or TalkTalk. Our team of testers chose the latest and best offerings from some of the biggest household name brands offering the best mesh wifi systems in the UK.
