Slow speeds through Google Home mesh

Spikedude
Community Member

I’ve been using a Google mesh systems for a few years. We currently have a three node Google home mesh. Lately I’ve been having much slower speeds than the 300 meg I pay for from my ISP. The ISP was here today and replaced the modem. Now, when connected to the modem, I get the appropriate 300+ meg speeds. But I continue to get below 90 meg From my Google Home router. Why?

Hey Spikedude,

Thanks for posting — let's see what's going on. 

Give these steps a try:

  • If you're using a modem/router combo, set that to bridge mode to avoid double NAT issues.
  • Make sure that there is minimal to no interference (concrete, bulletproof glass, metal, mirror, etc.) and the points are no more than two rooms apart.
  • Remove any special characters in your network name and password.
  • Turn off IPv6.
  • Change your DNS server into 8.8.8.8 on the primary and 8.8.4.4 on the secondary server. Hit the save/ floppy disk icon on the upper right.
  • Unplug the power from your Google Wifi devices for 2 minutes.
  • If the issue persists, try factory resetting your network. Take note that this will remove all data from your network.


Let us know how it goes.

Best,
Abi
