Hi All,

I am moving to a new ISP provider and have the Google Nest mesh connected to the old one. I now need to move the google nest connecting to the new Vodafone router.

Does anyone know the instructions to connect the Google wifi mesh to Vodafone router please

Thank you in advance.

Hey @SVe .

The Vodafone device will have to be put into bridge mode and routing & Wifi disabled to prevent a Double NAT situation. The below article should give you some direction on setting up your network. You may have to contact Vodafone to help with configuring their device for bridge only.

Hi @AbigailF @olavrb @PatrickP_Viking

Thank you for your prompt response. I managed to factory reset and connect to Vodafone router. Then switched off the wi-fi on the Vodafone Router. So that double NAT issue is resolved.

It is all set now.
