The main difference is the number of devices in the set: the 2-pack contains two routers for greater coverage, whilst the single-unit version contains just one device.
- Coverage: One router covers up to 120 m²; two routers together cover up to 220 m².
- Use: The 2-pack is suitable for larger flats or houses, the single version for smaller areas.
- Technology: Both variants use the same Wi-Fi 6E system with 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz.
- Compatibility: Both are part of the same product range; the 2-pack is simply a multi-pack of the same system.
In short: There is no technical difference in the device itself, just greater coverage thanks to an additional device in the 2-pack.
In the event of a return, a discount of 10% and the shipping costs will be charged. This also applies to returns that have already been checked, as these must be checked again. The shipping costs do not apply if the product is returned directly to a store.
The set of 3 consists of three mesh routers, each with two Ethernet ports, which can all act as routers or access points. You do not need an additional router, as one device is connected to your Sunrise modem as the main router and the other two extend the signal as mesh points.
Specifically for your situation:
- Current setup: Your Sunrise modem remains on the ground floor as the Internet source.
- Solution: A Nest Wifi Pro router is connected to the modem via Ethernet cable, the other two devices are placed on the ground floor and first floor as mesh points.
- Coverage: The set of 3 devices covers up to 6600 square feet (~613 m²), which is typically sufficient for multi-storey houses.
Important:
- Incompatibility: Nest Wifi Pro is not backwards compatible with older Google/Nest routers.
- Ports: Each router has two Gigabit Ethernet ports (useful for wired devices).
- Speed: Wi-Fi 6E with up to 5.4 Gbps (combined across all bands), ideal for multiple floors.
If your home is particularly large or has thick walls, additional routers may be required - the coverage per router is ~200 m².
The reason for these prices are the different suppliers with different conditions. Therefore, the situation at the moment is actually such that the 2-pack is cheaper than 3 pieces.
Due to different suppliers and delivery conditions, there may be price differences compared to other suppliers. We always try to design a price in line with the market, but this is not possible for all products.
