How do I replace my Nest router?

DonAwalt — Sun, 17 Oct 2021 01:25:59 GMT

I have two google nest Wi-Fi routers, and I would like to replace the router that’s currently running my Wi-Fi network in the house. I’ve been having a small issue with it, and I want to see if the same google nest Wi-Fi router that I used at another house would work better. Is there a way to replace the existing router on my network, or do I have to factory reset everything including my satellites, and start from scratch? Thank you!

Yes you will need to factory reset and resetup .. luckily it isn't too painful on the nest wifi system , took me about 10 minutes for my router and two points !
