This is not the case, although it is true that Google does not recommend hardwiring its mesh router systems. Additionally, you will get better throughput as the points will communicate via a gigabyte ethernet connection rather than wirelessly. Hardwiring Google Wifi can be helpful where the distance between the main point and access points is too large.
In such situations, if you fail to hardwire your mesh router system, then the signal strength will be weak and needy. Google Wifi and Google Nest Wifi are famous for being wireless mesh wifi routers. Luckily, you can adjust the settings of these routers and hardwire them yourself. The router simply assigns each device an internal IP address and they become part of the same network.
For example, if you connect a desktop computer to your network via an Ethernet cable and your laptop via Wi-Fi, you can share files back and forth since they are connected to the same network. Similarly, you can use a smartphone to cast video to your smart TV even if the TV is connected to your network via a wired connection. The only caveat is that the router may have a security setting that separates wired and wireless devices.
