Hey community,
I have a similar problem as in these (one, two) other discussions. Hower both of them ended up with no resolution, so I'm starting a new topic here.
I have a setup of 3 Nest Wifirouters. The internte provider cable goes to the first one, and then with cables two others are connected via a switch. I have devices connected both with a cable and with WiFi, the following problem appears on all of them.
My problem is: every morning the internet connection speed is super low, like 50 mbps or similar. Then I go to GoogleHome app on my phone and initiate a speed test for the mesh network. During the test speed goes up to its normal 1 gbps and stays on that level until the next day.
I have already did a couple of factory reset, software updates and so on, but nothing works, it's still an irritating morning ritual to wake up the network from sleep. At this point I'm almost ready for a switch to another hardware option. Can you please help me fixing the issue?

Hey @MaximEfimov .
There doesn't appear to be an issue with your Nest Wifi. When you run a speed test through your device, you are getting the results for the device to the speed test site and not what the network speed is from the ISP side. When you run the test in the Google Home app, you are testing the actual connection speed between your ISP and the Nest Wifi device; that is why results are different.
Other things that can cause this are lower speed devices slowing your internal network and Double NAT. Below are some articles to take a look at:

Fix Double NAT when two routers run at the same time (need to check if you are using an ISP provided modem/router)
Let me know if you still need assistance.
