Google nest Wifi Pro vs Google Wifi AC1200 model upload speed comparison

[TheMA5ON]

Hi team, I just swapped my google wifi AC1200 model with a brand new Google nest pro.

Identical placement and wiring, replaced router only and power cord, getting 10% improvement on download speed, but 80% reduction on upload. This is using the google home internet speed test:

980mb down vs 225mb upload Google Nest pro

920mb down vs 880mb upload Google wifi older 1200 model

Repeated tests. Is there a known issue with upload speeds on the new google nest pro?

History has shown that the built in speed test isn't always reliable.

What speed do you get if running speedtest.net from a laptop wired to the LAN port of the Nest Wifi Pro?

Interesting, today the Nest Wifi Pro is reporting 980mb down 980mb up! and its consistent. 

Perhaps it needed to run for a while to normalize.

I will do some testing as you've suggested and report back if there are any issues, otherwise assume all good. Thanks!
