No QR code and laptop does not have Ethernet port

[JeffLemkin]

I'm setting up my Google nest w/ a single "point" to replace my old Google router. The nest router did not have a QR code sticker on it and my laptops do not have Ethernet ports. What do I have to do to set it up? Thanks! -Jeff

Hrmm...the Nest wifi router (the new marshmallow looking ones) has a printed QR code on the bottom of it...the points have stickers that fall off way too easy, but they have hard to see codes etched into the bottom you can use instead, can be hard to see though unless you're really looking.

On the attached pic you can see on the left the point has "Setup code: 6D47SSF2" etched along the bottom of the ring. Does yours have that? If so you can say "I don't have a QR code" when setting it up and enter that instead.

It can be hard to see, but there should be a code etched into the bottom of the Nest wifi router that you can use to set it up...putting stickers on that fall off easy was kinda dumb in my opinion! The code is written around the outside of the ring
