The Google WiFi Mesh System delivers fast, reliable wireless coverage throughout your entire home. Designed to eliminate dead zones and buffering, this expandable mesh Wi-Fi system replaces your traditional router and works seamlessly with your existing modem and internet service provider.
Ideal for streaming, gaming, and smart homes, Google WiFi intelligently manages your network in the background so your connection stays fast and stable—without constant manual adjustments.
One Google WiFi router paired with a Wi-Fi point is powerful enough to support up to 200 connected devices and stream multiple 4K videos simultaneously. Each Wi-Fi point covers up to 1,500 square feet, and additional points can be added to expand coverage as your needs grow.
Whether you’re connecting from the attic to the basement, Google WiFi delivers consistent performance across your entire home.
Google WiFi uses built-in Network Assist technology to automatically select the clearest Wi-Fi channel and fastest band for each device. This advanced software runs continuously in the background to optimize performance—so you don’t have to manage your network manually.
The Google WiFi companion app makes setup quick and intuitive. From your phone, you can:
View all connected devices
Share your Wi-Fi password with guests
Prioritize important devices
Monitor network performance
Built-in parental controls allow you to pause Wi-Fi on kids’ devices during bedtime, homework hours, or family meals—helping you manage screen time with ease.
Google WiFi replaces your existing router and works with most major internet service providers, including Comcast, Spectrum (Time Warner Cable), and Verizon Fios.
