About your Network Box (GFRG100 and GFRG110)

Most Network Box customers are eligible to upgrade to a Nest Wifi Pro Router. To learn more, visit the Router upgrade for Network Box customers article.

The Google Fiber Network Box is connected by Ethernet cable directly to your Fiber Jack. Its dimensions are 7.5" W x 7.5" D x 1.6" H.

When it is properly connected, the LED on the front of the Google Fiber Network Box lights up solid blue. If the LED does not light up solid blue about 2 minutes after being connected to power, contact GFiber customer support.

The Network Box serves as a router, which provides Internet service for your home networks. You can connect computers and other devices to the Network Box using Ethernet cables or the wireless networks it provides. A maximum of four devices can be wired to the Network Box using Ethernet cables.

If you want to add more wired devices, you can connect a gigabit Ethernet switch. Connecting directly to the Network Box provides the fastest speeds on your network.

As the number of wireless devices connected to the Network Box increases, you might notice performance degradation.

You can manage your network settings, including how to set up your home network and connect your devices, from your Fiber account on the web.
