Google Nest Wifi with Ethernet cables

[DuarteRamos14]

Goodnight.

I would like to know if it is possible to connect the 3 Google Wi-Fi cables, cables coming from the operator's router, since the house is a little big and the signal between them is a little weak.

So, I have the operator's router in the office and UTP cables throughout the house. I have Google WiFi in the living room and on the 1st floor I have the other 2 Google WiFi. But when connecting these other 2 to the Ethernet cable that comes from the router, it creates a LOOP on the network.

Is there any way to be able to connect all of them to the UTP cable and the operator's router for better speeds and signal stability.

Thanks.

Yours sincerel

Your primary Wifi point connects to your operator's router via it's WAN port (globe symbol). Your secondary Wifi points cannot be wired into your operator's router and must be behind your primary Wifi point (so that it can control and manage them). To achieve this you can purchase an unmanaged network switch and connect it to the LAN port on your primary Wifi point. Then hardwire your secondary Wifi points into that same switch.

Goodnight and Thank

This way I can create the following scheme:

- Operator's router with port 4 in bridge mode.

- Cable for Google Wifi on the WAN port (globe).

- LAN port for the switch (TP-LINK TL-SG108S Switch 8 ports) for example.

- Another 2 Google WiFi connect to the switch

The other 2 Google wifi can I connect both WAN ports (globe)? Or do I have to connect the LAN ports?

In the Google Home App, it will recognize how all Google WiFi is wired or will I have to do some configuration in the App.

Thank you so much

You can use either port on the secondary Wifi points, but I'd recommend using the same port on them all and not changing it once setup. You don't need to do any config or settings changes in the Home app, it should detect they are hardwired automatically.
