Abstract: Connect the Ethernet cable coming from your modem to OnHub, plug in the power cable, and your wiring is done. Download the Google On app (Android or iOS). As soon as you fire it up, it recognizes your OnHub and very clearly takes you through the steps to...

Abstract: You'll either love or hate the new OnHub Wi-Fi router that Google and TP-Link have cooked up. If you're of the “I just want it to work” mindset, you'll dig it. If you're an enthusiast who likes to bend hardware to your will, tweaking knobs and being aware...

Only one wired port, No PC/Web browser app, Lacks many standard management options, Some features not yet enabled
The Google OnHub makes it easy to bring dual-band 802.11ac networking to your home, but it's missing many of the management features you'd expect from a $200 router...
