Home App: Wifi Mesh test does not support Old Wifi and Nest Wifi

[zrohit]

Google Home App:

Wifi Mesh test option does not show Old Wifi and new Nest Wifi points. It only shows the new Wifi Points in the MESH Test.

Also it would be nice to show some Bandwidth in the mesh test.

Thanks

Hi zrohit,

Thanks for reaching out. I'm sorry to hear that you're having an issue when you're doing a mesh test with your Google Nest WiFi points. The Google Home app should show all of your points. I'd love to know more about this, and I have a few questions:

• How many Nest WiFi points do you have?
• Do all the points showing in the home screen of the Google Home app?

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,
Edward

I have 3 old AC1200 AP's and three new Nest Wifi AC2200.  
All are configured and working in the Google Home App.

When I run the mesh test I only see the new Nest Wifi AP's in the animation.  The Old AP's are not shown in the animation.  The old AP's are shown only in the list option.  

Also when I run the MESH test I get different "connection" ratings depending on where in the house I run the test from.  I am under the impression the Mesh test is between the AP's only, independent of the test device.

Hi zrohit,

Thanks for the reply. The mesh test measures the connection between your primary Wifi point (the one connected to your modem) and any additional Wifi points. Could you share a screenshot of the screen shot of the page where you select the mesh test?

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,
Edward

Hi zrohit,

Thanks for the photo. Just to confirm. When you start the mesh test, is it only showing the new Google Nest WiFi?

Thanks,

Yep ONLY the NEST WIFI Nodes are shown on the Google Home App Mesh animation test.
the older AP's are NOT shown in the animation.
