Set preferred activities

With Google Nest Wifi Pro, Nest Wifi, and Google Wifi devices, you can have your network focus its bandwidth on activities that need a faster connection to the internet such as video conferencing. This will help these activities receive preference over other activities on your home network.

This setting is on by default but isn't active unless one of your devices is performing one of your preferred activities. Note: This feature is only available in the Google Home app.
