"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."
There really is no one Wifi router that will penetrate all walls and building materials and give you a giant bubble of Wifi. As far as signal strength goes, they are about the same. For the best experience on a budget and easy to set up, mesh is typically the go to, like Deco or Eero. Running a wire between the two or more for wired backhaul will make it even better better.
r/HomeNetworking • Router Recommendations for two story home? ->No reason to use an Archer if you want to use mesh anyway. Just use the Deco as your router as well for less devices, less cost, more streamlined. Deco or Eero are usually what I recommend for friends that want mesh.
r/HomeNetworking • Advice on getting a router + mesh system ->I have 4 Eeros and all have Ethernet backhauls Recommended
r/wifi • What mesh internet device would you suggest me to get so i can stream on twitch properly? ->I have 1gig service and with the eero pro 6 I was getting about 400meg to 500meg. Replaced with one eero 7 max and getting over 850 in some spots. I think the max 7 just has more throughput
r/amazoneero • eero is really great: the comparison you never ask for ->Spectrum has new mesh extenders coming out in a month or two. Outside of that, pods are usually fine. An eero mesh system would be my recommendation if you’re going to buy your own.
r/Spectrum • Pods/extenders/mesh - NEED HIGH SPEED ->Eero does 500mbps over WiFi, it’s hands down one of the best and easiest to manage. 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. Most people don’t need Gig network running throughout a house, it’s irrelevant Anyone saying don’t do mesh is honestly an idiot. Most probably live in an apartment or small house or just have know clue what you need vs what you want. 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 Zero reason to not have a mesh setup in 95% of setups… plan and simple Especially when you can do outdoor mesh setups with companies like Ubiquity but unless you need outdoor internet to throw it to a barn or something… most get the job done just fine, like eero
r/wifi • Home Wi-Fi recommendations ->100% spend the $ to get it ethernet done to each wifi point. I am a big fan of Eero wifi units if going wireless or Google if going wired btw. Google wifi uses the 6e wifi as wireless backhaul witch seems to have issues over 2 floors
r/nbn • Mesh wifi 100/40 Superloop ->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.
r/HomeNetworking • Mesh system ->I’d forget about the Telstra part completely. You can plug the NTD directly into an Eero and then either use the other available ports to connect to the ports in the garage, or throw in a Netgear port switch between the Eero and the garage connection ports. Wire the rest as per your thoughts. You don’t need a modem with NBN NTD.
r/HomeNetworking • Australia double storey home - help required for best set up (wired / wireless mesh combo) ->Eero is a mesh wifi system. As you aren't gaming in the office, use an extra eero AP in between the laundry room and the office to get full house coverage
r/frisco • Help - Amazon Eero setup or dropping an Ethernet cable ->Amazon eero have been great for me
r/Wyze • Replaced Google WiFi mesh with Wyze 6e Pro ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
