How to set up using 3 separate LAN lines

I have 3 LAN ports in 3 different rooms, I’d like to hard wire each Nest Point. How do I go about setting that up?

Be sure which model you have. Nest Wifi points don't have an ethernet port and can't be hardwired. Nest Wifi Pro, Nest Wifi router and the older Google Wifi point does have an ethernet port and can be hardwired. Either way, your modem's LAN port connects to your Nest Wifi router or primary Google Wifi point's WAN port.

To hardwire your other points, you can either chain them together or use a non-managed switch:

  • Modem → Wifi router → Point → Additional point → and so on
  • Modem → Wifi router → Switch → Point → Additional point
  • Modem → Wifi router → Point → Switch → Point → Additional point
