I have a very large spread out home with a garage apartment. I currently use 8 WiFi nests.. a couple rooms still have spotty internet connections. What can I do to improve connectivity?

I'm assuming you're following the placement guidelines as much as possible? See the "Improve coverage for an existing network" section below:

If you're still struggling after following those steps. Are you relying on the Wi-Fi mesh or have you hardwired them? Hardwiring them can often help improve performance in very large homes, and homes that have thick walls or lots of obstructions.

It's worth bearing in mind Google recommends a maximum of 5 Wi-Fi devices in a single network. Adding more can actually be detrimental to Wi-Fi performance.
