EDIT: it was the NEST CONNECT all along that kills the WiFi when being paired to the network. SOLVED
Once you discovered that Nest connect was the problem what did you do to solve the problem?
- I returned the nest. They know it’s an issue until they can find a fix. This has been going on for them since December. It’s almost March. I can’t wait that long. Although this doesn’t affect everyone with a nest connect.
i was having the same problem with my new Nighthawk AC1900 and called Netgear support. after numerous attempts to fix they ended up sending a replacement. In the meantime while waiting on the replacement I did some more searches online and found a potential fix. It worked. Just to complete the experiment as soon as the replacement AC1900 arrived, I set it up and connected up the Nest products (Nest connect and a thermostat) less than 24 hours later the new modem/router was having the same problems. I then tried the fix and for the past four days I have not had any problems.
the fix is to turn on the guest network and connect the nest products. All your other gear is connected to the regular secure networks.
