Google's new mesh router is now available in Canada. The one-pack Nest Wifi router costs $229, the two-pack goes for $349, and the three-pack retails for $459. This follow-up to Google Wifi is backwards compatible. It has two ethernet ports, and it offers Bluetooth connectivity. The Thread functionality, which can turn the Nest Wifi into a smart home hub, won't be available at launch. This mesh router is now accessible through Google's Home app, so it's easier to manage. It now has 25 percent greater coverage than its predecessor, as well. It supports internet speeds of up to 2.2Gbps, with one router covering 2,200 sq ft., the router and a point covering 3,800 sq. ft., and the three-pack is covering 5,400 sq. ft.
The Nest Wifi now also supports Assistant through its points, making it work similarly to a Home Mini or Nest Mini. It even has the same speaker as the Nest Mini. It isn't available on the main router, though. So, you'll need to get the router plus the Wifi point or point to get this feature.
