Hey there, I see that it is possible to control the Nighthawk AC1900 with an Amazon Alexa (see here). I am wondering if it is possible to do the same from a Google Home and if so, how? Thanks!

Hi rgreenwood, As of the moment only Alexa can control the router as an added feature. No information if Google Home will have a control on the router in the future.

Hi rgreenwood,

Only few features you can control on the router using the Alexa.

For Google Home, are you asking if Alexa can control it or if the Google home can control the router?
