Hi there,
I just got a Google Nest Router to replace my OnHub which is reaching its End-of-Support by next year. Currently my OnHub network is already managed by Google Home app, is there way to migrate OnHub network to the new Google Nest Wifi? For example without "Factory Reset" the network and reconfiguration everything like DHCP reservation and port forwarding etc?
Thanks.

Hello @TheStig
Unfortunately, no – there is no way to back up and reuse your existing configuration in a new Nest WiFi setup. Take good notes on the important aspects before taking down the old system and setting up the new one.

I have a Nest Router that is far from coming to the end of its support window, sadly it's going wrong (as are many others) and the "support" thus far is sadly lacking.... Consider other manufacturers, don't assume that Google support is support worth having.

Thanks for confirming, guess that’s a good chance for me to consider alternatives.
