"Having kids who run everywhere for wifi, eero is simply the best. ... Set it, forget it, and it's simplified my life."


"Now I have a different mesh network and it just works and I didn’t have to learn anything or do any troubleshooting."


"Very easy to setup ... Your parents might actually enjoy the setup process, as the phone App walks you through it completely."

"I have personally sequentially upgraded EERO generations thrice no with nothing but outstanding results compared to my 'traditional' WiFi networks and have had personal knowledge of 3 other parties who became EERO fans real quick in our traditional American Homes - designed just a tad too spread out for effective non EERO WiFi."


"I have a tri-level home with 3 Eero units. ... I have the base unit next to my AT&T fiber gateway on the upper floor, one in a receptacle bracket in my dining room on the middle floor and one in my garage on the bottom floor at the opposite end of the dining room unit. ... I'm using wifi only to connect all three and have no gaps in coverage. ... I have wifi cameras on the front, back and each end of the house and one out on my storage shed about 75 feet from the house. ... I can walk anywhere on my property and have no less than 40 to 45% signal strength."


"are best for coverage/range and speeds !"

"We typically have 15-20 devices actively connected and using data at a time and performance isn’t an issue."


"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"

"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."

r/amazoneeroI'm considering leave eero and switching to another mesh Wi-Fi brand. Does anyone have a better solution?
4 months ago

I have been using Eero 6 Pros since soon after they came out. They have worked flawlessly for me since then. I fix computers for a living and have installed those units in more than 100 homes with no issues! I now have to buy them on eBay as Eero has discontinued them. But they have the best range and seem to virtually bulletproof. I have never seen anything is so easy to install and works so well. Also, I can buy the units for about $50 each on eBay and resell them for $120-$160 each, plus my time at $160 an hour. And my customers are super happy!

I have three pack in same size home using Eero 6 pro because I wanted coverage for my patio. Outstanding service but you can start with two and add another if needed.

Well that’s what we have wireless for. With good equipment and placement 99% of homes won’t need or care about all the technical details. My Eero system is my third generation and it is always faultless and able to handle whatever I’ve thrown at it no matter how many people are on it or what we’re doing. Never down and updates flawlessly.

r/amazoneeroThinking of switching from Netgear Orbi 970 to Eero Max 7
9 months ago

If wifi speeds are far lower than you expect with three Max 7s, remove one of the Max 7s and retest speeds after a few minutes. I ran into this problem years ago trying to use three Pro 6s over two stories and 2200 sq feet. I removed one of the 6s and wifi speeds went through the roof again. I'm using two Pro 7s now in the same home and experiencing the best speeds and coverage ever. I'm quite happy now my Orbi 752 satellite decided to die three months ago which made me revisit eero ;-)

Eero 6 pro. 5 years no issue. Tons of Sonos speakers, home kit, home bridge to add in ring alarm products, 3 Apple TVs, Meross and govee. Seamless. Get the eero.

I love mine. Have had them since launch and replaced my older eero 6 pros. No regrets and been super stable for me.

r/amazoneeroAccess point confusion
11 months ago

I would absolutely agree with you there, budget allowing. Currently I run two eero 6+ devices (going back in a few days; they belong to my ISP and I'm leaving their area) along with two eero Pro 6 devices (mine, purchased before I switched to my current ISP, which provided the 6+ eeros at no monthly charge). They've all been great devices to run. However, if I were buying today (whether for replacement or just supplementing), I would only look at the various eero 7 options. I probably should have mentioned that, even though it sounded like OP might be looking to spend less!

I run 2 eero wifi 6 pros in a 7800sq ft house and works perfectly fine for me. I have a mini in my truck and imo the range on that isn’t that good.

r/amazoneeroDon't know which Eero to buy? Here's my updated guide.
4 months ago

I currently have the pro 6 3-pack for my 3100 sqft home and have had ZERO issues with about 60 devices connected for the last 4-5 years. Moving to a new house 4100 sqft and looking at options for that house since my existing system will stay with the rental. I see "upgrade options" that give a solid discount. Usage we need is zoom calls (usually one person at a time max) some tv streaming and general internet usage with some cameras, smart home stuff, etc, nothing needed for heavy load streaming or gaming. Should I be ok with the 6+ or do I need to go to a pro model again?

Eeros are designed for laymen. The network pros don’t like them because they’re less tweakable than what they want. I had an Eero Pro 6 on the second floor of a 2700 square foot house and it covered everything fantastically. I now have two nodes on a much smaller house because I’m a weirdo.

r/HomeKitWhat are some good Wifi 6 routers to buy currently in YOUR opinion?

Agreed. I’m not the tech tinkerer that I used to be. I just want to plug in the things and let them work. I love my Eeros.

I knew I'd see downvotes as soon as anyone mentioned Eero! My 6 pros have been excellent. They were provided free by my previous ISP and I've been running them for 2+ years without problem.
