2x Nest Wifi Routers Setup

Cheddzz — Sat, 16 Jul 2022 04:11:21 GMT

I'd like to confirm the following setup is Valid please:

1st WiFi Nest Router

WAN Port connected to Modem

2nd WiFi Nest Router at other end of house, connected as access point wirelessly to 1st Router. And critically using the LAN port on the 2nd Router to a Computer without WiFi.

Is the 2nd Router able to be set up in that configuration?

Thanks

Yes, this is a supported setup.

Modem > Router ~ Router > Computer

> Ethernet
~ Wireless

Yeah, you can do this by setting your second router in bridge mode.
