Discovered while helping a friend set his up. Most consumers don't know how to channel peg WiFi. Seems like a massive flaw, adjusting WiFi to suit one device?
Really does not inspire confidence spending money on any Google product.

The 5ghz spectrum in the US is broken up into UNII 1, 2, 2 Extended, and 3, which all have their own separate FCC regulations and certification process. Lazy manufacturers for these types of devices don't want to go through more than one process, especially for UNII 2 and 2-Extended channels, which have stricter requirements. So they just do the lower channels.
I guess some, may be a minority of people wants competition to Apple. But neither Amazon or Google seems to be serious about it.
can’t connect to my 5ghz wifi (80mhz/channel 149).
and the ethernet connection is only 100Mbit.
Like, it’s literally just bad. I don’t even know where my LG remote is.
