Setting up Nighthawk RAX50
"Novice in learning."
BEFORE setting up my new Nighthawk RAX50 router, can anyone tell me if there may have any compatibility problems with my Google Home/Nest thermostat and Ring doorbell and Ring camera systems? Firmware has not been checked yet if needs update. Im guessing it may. The sales person couldn't answers some of these questions.
I have MacOS Ventura 13.4, Ring doorbell/cameras (upstairs and downstairs), Google Home Nest, Xfinity cable TV boxes (up and downstairs) using WIFI. 2500 square ft. home.
Thank You if anyone knows the answer and/or can give this novice some good advice

Shouldn't be. My NEST controllers worked fine when I had my RAX50v2 online. I don't have RING products so I can't comment on those but should be ok.
Most of these devices have issues on MESH systems which the RAX isn't.
I recommend using Channel 1 and 40 on the radios if other nieghbors are using those.
