"I have setup three Eero mesh systems for family members. They are super easy to setup and maintain. ... It has been set it and forget it for over three years now. ... These are installed in houses with users who are 65+."
"Having kids who run everywhere for wifi, eero is simply the best. ... Set it, forget it, and it's simplified my life."
"I think folks that have commented already missed the point that you're not tech-savvy and do not way to deal with complicated setup/ troubleshooting. ... I would recommend Eero. It's a solid performer and designed for the person that isn't tech-savvy and does not want to tinker with the network."

"it just works ... I’ve only had to reset my network maybe once or twice in the last few years"

"I have two setups in different areas, one covers a massive fucking area because I have a field I mow that's about 20 acres and was able to set up a lot of point to point extension within that. ... At the spot I'm currently at I have about 2 acres covered and trying to push to 4."
"I have perfect 500-700 mb/s download throughout my whole house and garage."

"I recently decided to wire up my home, and connect my eeros together with wired backhaul. Everything is snappier, network is overall faster and my eeros actually run a lot cooler too."
"I have used the wired ports to connect some of the TVs direct to the aps"
"But they tend to be pretty reliable if you have wired backhaul and don't have any exotic needs."

"2k sq. foot house with lots of interference, 2 daughters and a wife that heavily cnsume games and internet and video apps, tv's in many rooms... probably 20 active devices. and when their friends come over, BAM! Peakout!"
"After 6 years of using it for all my security cameras and IoT it’s basically pointless to run CAT cable throughout a house in today’s world. ... I have 3 wireless cameras on my deck, 2 on my garage, one on my door, 2 inside my home. Including the other random 70 devices throughout my basement (movie room), office (2nd floor) in a 3500sqft home and have literally zero issues, from stream live security streams, streaming movies, gaming doesn’t matter"
"I have over 80 devices connected with no issues."

"The Pro 6E, for instance, has one 2.5gb and one 1gb port. You need to choose between more internal bandwidth or handling up to 2.5gb internet bandwidth but limiting your internal wired devices to 1gb."
"If you like to tinker with your network settings, there aren’t many settings to play with. ... Still you will not have full access to configure the router the way you want to."
"there's no way to turn off automatic updates"

"Sometimes those APs get stuck in an orphaned state and require a physical reboot or even a reset and new set up."
"But alas, the handover between the eero's was incredibly slow. ... If using them in their separate rooms, as 2 independent WiFi units, fine. But if having them as mesh, as previously mentioned, one needs to be upstream."
"The mesh can be unreliable. ... After a disconnect it can a long time to reconnect."

"And some features are blocked behind a paywall like for example going to a list of which devices consume more data on a day and so on."
"Amazon does seem to have some subscription based functions in the router firmware 99.99/year for eero+ features such as VPN, content controls, user management, etc. ... I typically won’t buy products that want you to pay a subscription to make full use of the hardware already purchased."
"constant upsell for features that I believe should be standard"

"so my iphone 16 and macbook air m3 which both support 6ghz would only use 5ghz with this? ... so it doesnt support the 6ghz band that my MacBook and iPhone use? would it just use the normal old 5ghz band? ... No 6ghz... No thanks. My macs and iphones are all wifi 6 ... no 6ghz band which the latest iphone and macs use ... No 6ghz band is whack.. ... so if i have the pro 6E right now which has support for 6ghz for my MacBook and iPhone, the new eero 7 wont support the ghz band? so would my devices just use 5ghz? ... lol hell na ill stay with my pro 6e then, I have wifi 6 devices, not wifi 7 devices"
"The 7 does not [support 6hz]."
"At least there's 6GHz! Just...it's also 2x2."

"Eero is very greedy on trying to maximize its own performance at the expense of everything else. ... It works ok if there aren’t any other APs (ie neighbors) nearby, but it sucks ass if you live in dense housing."
"disappointed sometimes at the speeds or signal strength"
AffluentNarwhal 1.0I have an eero 7 mesh system. The modem they rent is a Eero 7 Max I think, but it’s a single unit so you’d still need to purchase some to make a mesh. I think it’s better to have a decent mesh than a single high power router tucked away in a corner of your house. Honestly, it’s more than I need, but I opted for it as a balance of speed/future proofing and coverage for the house. The speed is very good, it was a breeze to set up, and I’ve had no issues so far.
Apprehensive_Tax1760 1.0I just replaced my old Google router mesh from 2019 with Eero 7 mesh. The speeds are much faster but has less stability. I really took Google router for granted, we had zero connection issues. With Eero I have at least 3 connections issues a week to fix. Garage keypad, kids iPad, smart light
BasilVegetable3339 1.05500 sq ft house. One eero 7. Works fine.
bgix 1.0If you need multiple access points, and often need to move around while maintaining uninterrupted connections, then a wired backhaul mesh system is the ideal. I personally use eero, but most current mesh solutions are pretty decent.
Boisson5 1.0I have a 7000 sqft house that’s adequately covered with 1 eero 7, just my internet speed near the router is 300mbps and at the farthest point away from it it’s like 20mbps, but it gets the job done
bryeds78 1.0In my opinion, eero. It's insanely easy to setup and manage, it's also rock solid in performance and stability. I haven't had a single problem with it. Haven't used the tp-link one, but eero has been wonderful.
I use Eero, it's been an excellent mesh solution. Very reliable, easy to setup, easy to add nodes and manage the network. Personally, I can't recommend anything but Eero
bubblepopper684 1.0The Eero 7 3pack is cheaper than the 6E 3 pack, why wouldn't I just get that? 2k sq. foot house with lots of interference, 2 daughters and a wife that heavily cnsume games and internet and video apps, tv's in many rooms... probably 20 active devices. and when their friends come over, BAM! Peakout!
caolle 1.0I run 4 [gocoax ma2500d](https://www.gocoax.com/ma2500d) adapters alongside two eero 7 mesh pucks in bridge mode. I don't remember what spec the Roamios/minis support, so you might run into some speed issues there. But I've generally had some good success. They've allowed me to hardwire stuff at my media center, the wife's office, and the spare bedroom where we keep the eero on the third floor.
enfurno 1.0You're going to get a lot of hate towards tplink. I have had great experience with them for a long time. That being said, the deco stuff just isn't it. Go with the eero if your between these two systems.
Firm-Reflection-5230 1.0Vr doesn't need 1gb or a eero 7.. I use a quest 3 with virtual desktop and its fine
Don't listen to the fear mongering.. the 7 is a perfectly fine eero
Yes its perfectly fine and whats with people thinking vr headsets take a bunch of bandwidth
