FAQ
Today, we’re using Wi-Fi in ways our old routers were never meant to handle. That’s why we built OnHub, a new router thoughtfully designed for you and your home - and every way you stream and share.
OnHub looks different from other routers out there because it’s designed to be out in the open, which gives you the best signal. It has a dimmable light ring, the cables are minimized to look tidier, and its high-performance antennas are neatly hidden away inside its shell.
OnHub combines high-performance hardware and innovative software, with the easy-to-use Google On mobile app. The app speaks in a language you understand. That means it guides you through simple setup, makes it easy to see which devices are connected to your network, and offers help if there’s ever an issue.
Plus, it’s designed to last, even as the way we use Wi-Fi changes. It’s built to support a growing number of "smart devices" because it includes Bluetooth® Smart Ready, Weave, and Thread. OnHub also automatically updates without interrupting your Wi-Fi connection so you’ll always have the latest features and security upgrades.
