Each unit broadcasts the Wi-Fi signal, forming a "mesh" that covers a larger area than a single router. Your devices automatically connect to the strongest signal, regardless of which unit they're closest to. This ensures you never experience dropped connections as you move around your home. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.
submitted byMike - 5 months agoTarget expert supportA: Hi TheOutdoorsCouple. The Nest Wifi Pro is a standalone router, so you can completely replace the one provided by your ISP. Simply connect the cable from your internet service provider (ISP) directly to the Nest Wifi Pro's WAN port (the internet port) using an ethernet cable. This will eliminate the need for your ISP's router and provide Wi-Fi coverage for your home. However, it's important to note that the Nest Wifi Pro still requires a modem to function.
