I recently purchased a Google Nest Router and 2 x points to replace my Huawei router which is over 5 yrs old and dying ie. Wifi kept droping out more frequently over time. My ISP is Dodo. After much ado I finally got the google nest wifi to connect to the internet and here is how:
- Connect ethernet cable from Google Nest Router WAN to LAN port 1 on the Huawei router.
- Power up the Google nest router
- Use the Google Home App on you iphone, select Devices, Select Add +
- Select the Google Nest Router
- After about 3 mins it will fail to to connect but you will be offered to select Internet Settings
- Tick the DHCP box only - Do Not select anything else.
- Select Save on the top right hand corner.
- Let it detect the Google Router again and it should then give you new options to connect to the internet.
- Set up your network name, password and then the extender points.
So far I am not experiencing any interference from the old wifi (Double NAT) but it is there if I want to select it.
Good luck. Hope this helps.
