Google Nest Ethernet ports are gigabit. That's why you were getting close to 300 Mbps with Nest router.

You're paying for 300 Mbps but your internet speed maxes out at less than 100 Mbps because this router can't go faster than 100. Whether it matters or not depends on you. You may not "feel" any difference if there is only 1 or 2 devices streaming simultaneously. When you have multiple devices consuming the 100 Mbps connection (eg: streaming 4K video, zoom calls, multiple large downloads etc), you should feel the difference.

I would either replace the router or lower my subscription to 100 Mbps (if that's possible) and save money.

Wi-Fi 5 with 10/100 Mbps ports. Would only be good if you have very slow internet speeds.

May work as a secondary node for wirelessly extending an existing WiFi mesh. 100Mbps limit on ethernet port is not good.

I'm not tech saavy when it comes to networking so I didn't catch the ethernet speeds. I pay for 300mbps but I'm getting 88 over wifi with this setup. That said, serious question, does it really matter for someone like me that is primarily on wifi for work zoom calls and streams the occasional movie? Other than what speed test says, I can't tell a difference between this and my prior Google Nest wifi setup. On Google's setup I was getting close to 300mbps but in actual use I can't tell any difference. The Google extenders were constantly disconnecting so that's why I replaced it (just yesterday) with this setup. So far so good as far as I can tell.

This is a good deal for a larger house, for someone with extremely low speeds under 100Mbps. Only major scenarios are like grandparents or people on low income HSI, or people living in the country.

It most definitely has wireless back haul and should also have wired backhaul as well about 99% sure on the wired backhaul.

The speed comes in handy as the number of devices used at the same time increases. If you are living alone than no it really does not matter much at all even 88mbps is plenty since that's the equivalent of running 2 4K streams at the same time. The reason you are only getting 88mbps is because your modem connection that plugs into the base TP-Link unit is limited to a ethernet port that only supports speeds up to 100mbps. They used very old tech to put these low cost units together. The standard for most equipment is 10/100/1000mbps for networking equipment.

If your okay with only getting 100mbps out of the 300 you are paying for keep it. If you ever want faster speeds you will have to change out this set for a slightly better units probably closer to the $100 mark.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I'm not able to reduce my plan but I'm only paying $20 a month for internet so I don't really care too much: I just want it to reliably work.

Do these work as additional mesh units in an existing TP-Link mesh system? $44 for two additional wireless nodes is the only thing that makes sense to me if they're bottlenecking the WAN port to 10/100 lmao

I was thinking the same. I may put them outside to extend outdoor coverage.

Yes and yes, and if you use them on the outside fringes they will not be bottled necked cause they will be using the wireless backhaul which means speeds will be way better than the 10/100 of the Ethernet port. Realistically after 2 hops can probably get around 120-300mbps depending if you have 500mbps to 1gbps plan.

If it is cheaper and you can't tell the difference then just go for it.

This is AC1200 ( WiFi 5, up to 1200 mbps), old and slow. One DLink Eagle for $80 will offer AX3200 ( WiFi 6, up to 3200 mbps) with 3000 sqft coverage already, same coverage as these TP.
