Nest Pro WiFi is absolutely terrible. I fought with it for years handling a bunch of devices, matter products, etc. I gave up two months ago for Unify. Such a dramatic transformation after years of poor WiFi performance. There is no such thing as a “lemon” in this product category.
Maybe I'm in the minority, but my dual Nest Wifi Pro setup has been solid for me (minus random latency). I have them setup in a wired backhaul configuration. 50-60 device on the network at anyone time.
Rock solid with my two unit Nest WiFi Pro setup. Forget they are even there.
I've used both and honestly, I find the Eero to be faster and smoother and more consistent than when I had the Nest Wifi Pro 6E. I don't know if it's because my main router is the Max 7 but that's what I found. The other thing I really like is you can mix and match the Eero routers, unlike Google's where you have swap out the entire mesh if you ever wanted to upgrade to their future devices (if any). Makes for a much easier and cheaper transition. I'm a full Google ecosystem household with Android phones and nest hubs, but I still find my mesh network and all my smart devices, over 150 of them, run a lot smoother on the Eero network than on my previous Google network. In regards to Matter, since I have a Nest Hub Max and a Nest Hub Audio, they both support matter and is therefore able to add Matter devices even if it's missing from the Eero network.
Eero Pro 6E has 2 ports. One is 2.5Gbps and the second one is 1Gbps. I have my Eero Pro 6E backhaul connected using a MoCA 2.5G adapter to connect it right to my main router, which is the Max 7.
Went and bought the google nest mesh pro just for this same reason, game changer
I would not. I am currently replacing mine with ASUS mesh routers. The performance simply does not translate to the speeds you need from Wi-Fi. I pay for 1Gbps service and I get no more than 200 over Wi-Fi on any device. I have talked to support on and off for over a year about this issue to no avail. I simply would not waste your money on a product that Google does not support.
I hate to say it but I jumped ship after having to fight my nest pros for so long with just general functionality and having to invent workarounds to make them do normal routing tasks. I'm on ubiquiti now and never looking back.
