I have a google AC1200 Wifi mesh ( 4 of them ) from costco and not nest wifi (I didn't see a category for non-nest devices). I own a AT&T fiber router and the entire house has ethernet ports in each rooms from this router (I can connect up to 4 ethernet cables - meaning 4 rooms). Now, this router is at the corner of my house and my office room is at the other end. So a 150Mbps download speed near the router becomes 3Mbps near the Office room and the floor above. I bought this google mesh 4 pack to solve my problems.

I bought this google mesh 4 pack to solve my problems. So enabled the ethernet port in my office and made connected the first and primary mesh router there. The speed is 150Mbps and is great. The others however - 2 on the ground floor separated at equal distance and one on the top floor have around 30Mbps speed. Is there a way for all of them to be connected to the ethernet port in each room so that they are linked to the primary AT&T router/modem combo and get full speed?
