Google Wi-Fi can now cover homes in 21 countries
Google has expanded its mesh Wi-Fi system to five new markets over the past two weeks.
Google Wifi uses access points you can place throughout your home instead of a single router.

After expanding to Spain and Austria last week, Google Wifi is launching in the Philippines, Italy, and Portugal on Tuesday.
