Can I Use a Second Nest Router as a Wireless Access Point?

I already have a nest router ac2200. Would I be able to just plug and play a second ac2200 and use it as wireless access point the same way you could use a nest point?

Yes, it's also mentioned in the set up instructions:

The instructions for adding a router as a point are for Nest WiFi Pro.  I do not have Pro, just Nest WiFi.  Is the same true for Nest WiFi?

You can find set up instructions for regular Nest Wifi just below the Pro instructions.

Hey folks,

@olavrb, thanks for the clarification. 

@allen031, I want to check if you were able to get your Google Nest Wifi device added to your mesh network. Let me know if you need additional help. 

Cheers,

Sorry for the delayed response.  Yes, I was able to get a router to act as a Point.  I had to basically start over with my entire network and then could view the router with an option to use as a point.
I am happy😁

Thanks for the follow up!
