Is Nest mesh the solution ?

[Shawfield]

Hi

I am in a new home that is very highly insulated internally, and our 500mbps internally wired internet is strong, but WiFi signals are extremely poor ( 50mbps if we are lucky )

As we have internally wired ethernet points in each of our 4 rooms, I am wondering which Nest system is best able to plug into each room's ethernet port and deliver WiFi at a better speed than we currently have.

We use internet for streaming UHD TV in 3 of the 4 rooms plus the usual browsing and online shopping on Phones.

thanks in advance

Any help appreciated

Hi Shawfield,

Thanks for reaching out! I understand you're looking for the best Nest system to connect to the Ethernet ports in your four rooms to improve Wi-Fi performance, especially with your new home's high insulation. I can definitely help with that!

To find the best option for you, I'd like to know the following:

• Are the Ethernet ports connected to a switch or are they all directly connected to your current router?
• Where exactly are the four Ethernet ports located in relation to each other and to the main router?
• Are there any other potential sources of interference in your home, like large appliances, mirrors, or other wireless devices?

Please keep me posted! 

Regards,
Juan

Thanks.

The ISP's WiFi 6 router is connected directly by wire to the 4 internally wired and numbered ethernet ports situated next to the router in the ground floor service cupboard. Each of the 4 rooms in the house has a numbered ethernet port in the wall ready to connect to a nest router

Neighbours report very poor WiFi signals from the ISP's router ( 50mbps instead of the incoming 500mbps fibre connection ) throughout the house mostly due to extremely high levels of internal insulation. Hence looking at wired connections to each room, so that WiFi is strong in each room, for TV's, laptops and Phones (  no gaming )
