A:  Yes you do.

A:  first you turn off wireless in the Comcast Motorola unit. Then yes you connect ethernet to the Nest from an open port to the Motorola unit.

A:  You can definitely connect your Comcast Motorola modem to the Nest Wifi router via Ethernet cable. However, if you're using a modem/router combo, we recommend setting it up in bridge mode and disabling its Wi-Fi functionality. This will avoid any network issues caused by both your combo and your Nest Wifi Router, broadcasting the same SSID and password.

A:  Yes, luckily this just works as an extender to your internet provider’s range given the router you already would have. 

A:  Should be, it’s basically your router and should hook right up to any provider

A:  Nest Wifi works with most modems and internet service providers (ISP), including CenturyLink. However, for the best performance, we recommend connecting Nest Wifi directly to your modem using an Ethernet cable to set it up and broadcast your Wi-Fi network. If your modem is a modem/router combo, we recommend disabling the Wi-Fi functionality of the combo or putting it in Bridge mode to avoid Double NAT as it may cause connectivity issues.

A:  Yes, although the Nest Wifi can be used as a standalone system, it can be combined with Google Wifi points or Nest Wifi (router or points) to expand coverage within your home in a mesh network, which is a group of devices that act as a single Wi-Fi network. So there are multiple sources of Wi-Fi around your house, instead of just a single router.

A:  Hey short answer is no. You only use one router. All additions need to be points.
