Google Introduces Nest Wifi Pro Router With Wi-Fi 6E Support, Built-in Matter Hub [Video]

Google has introduced a new Nest Wifi Pro router with Wi-Fi 6E support and a built-in Matter hub for smart home devices.

Designed with our many Wi-Fi needs in mind, each Nest Wifi Pro can accommodate nearly every connected device in a typical home. And it has the speed and capacity to handle several high-bandwidth activities at the same time, like taking video calls while watching 4K videos and streaming your security cameras. One router has the power to cover up to 2,200 square feet alone.

Nest Wifi Pro also includes a built-in Thread border router so you can connect all your Thread smart devices to your home network — and save energy, thanks to Thread’s low power mesh. Shortly after Matter, the new smart home protocol, launches, you'll be able to use your Nest Wifi Pro router as a Matter hub, too. It will control and connect to all your Matter-enabled devices, making it that much easier to manage and add devices to your smart home in the future.





Features:
● Nest Wifi Pro is up to 2x faster than WiFi 6, so you get super fast speeds and a reliable connection for your entire home
● One WiFi router provides up to 2200 square feet of fast, reliable WiFi[2]; and you can customize your setup to create a mesh WiFi system for the coverage you need
● Nest Wifi Pro automatically adjusts your WiFi network’s performance and activity; it prioritizes video calls and helps websites load quickly
● It has built-in technology to make sure your connection is strong and consistent, even at the edge of your WiFi network’s coverage
● Nest Wifi Pro uses the latest, most advanced WiFi 6E technology[3], so it isn’t compatible with previous generations of Google Wifi or Nest Wifi
● Nest Wifi Pro monitors itself, diagnoses network issues, and can even fix some common issues on its own
● It gives you super fast and reliable speeds with three bands: 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and the new 6 GHz band
● Secure booting and software updates help protect Nest Wifi Pro from running unauthorized software and router hacks
● Nest Wifi Pro shows all the devices connected to your WiFi network; easily pause access for unknown devices that you don’t want connecting to your WiFi, and create a guest network that uses a different password, so you don’t have to share yours
