r/HomeKitNew mesh router for home kit recommendations?
2 months ago

I’m so you think the eero 6e pro is a good choice? I have a few matter smart plugs and the new Apple TV that has thread and three HomePods and three minis, and two thread smart Schlage locks.

r/HomeKitNew mesh router for home kit recommendations?
2 months ago

I went with the eero 6e pro. So far so good. Set up Was incredibly easy. But having a small issue setting up a couple smart devices. I got everything set up fairly simply. But I’m having trouble getting a smart plug with matter from Kasa hooked up to my HomeKit app as well as my Samsung sound bar. I’m figuring out I believe it has something to do with the smart plug and soundbar are on one band while my phone might be on the 6ghz band. Most of this stuff is over my head and I’m learning a lot as I go. I was wondering if you’ve come across something similar with your eero? I don’t know how to make so my phone can be on the same band as the devices. The smart plug and soundbar work fine in their native apps. And actually worked fine in Homekit with my old router. So it has to be something about the triband that my new eero network offers. Any of this make sense to you?

r/HomeNetworkingGood consumer routers that aren't Ubiquiti?
10 months ago

I just upgraded from an eero 6e to a UDR7, it’s barely more money and so much better. Eero is pretty set it and forget it but if you want any advanced features at all, or maybe in the future, go with ubiquiti

r/HomeNetworkingBest WiFi Router for an 850 square foot apartment?
8 months ago

The Eero eco system is pretty rock solid. I had an Eero 6E Pro with a 6 Pro doing mesh on a 1250sq ft apartment and never had an issue. I recently upgraded to a Dream Router 7 because I wanted to separate the IoT devices and have a network running on a VPN and it's been great. Eero is great but somewhat limited which is why I upgraded to the UDR7.

r/amazoneeroNew Fiber connection - Unsure about router setup
8 months ago

You will not have advantage of 2gb fiber connection with 6e. Even if you connect 6e to isp with 2.5gb port, second port is only 1gb. I recommend hardwire all mesh nodes if it's possible. Unlikely that nodes able to handle more then 500-800 wireless connection for a long time

Eero is epic. I've got the 6E Pro, they also give you a mesh network for home automation. The latency is extremely impressive, as is the throughput.

r/sonosNew Sonos Router Recommendations
5 months ago

Since I've had Sonos gear in my house, I've run three mesh wifi routers: a Netgear Orbi, a Tp-Link XE-75 Pro and now a Eero 6E. By far the Eero has been the easiest, most stable and most reliable of the bunch. The TP-Link was absolute garbage and nothing but a headache for the 6 months I had it.

r/amazoneeroIs this a good upgrade ? Amazon eero Pro 6E (1-pack) + Amazon eero 6+ (2-pack) mesh Wi-Fi 6 system - $299 now
8 months ago

Idk why you got down voted but I spent about 160 bucks to get two TP-Link Deco XE70 Pro from Amazon to replace my Eero Pro 6e +extender. I also have increased speeds and range. From my research seems like best bang for the buck. That being said the 300 bucks package here is alright if you want to stay in the same ecosystem. Not a crazy deal, but if you need it, you need it.

r/techsupportSomeone’s telling me WiFi mesh systems aren’t routers

Not sure what the BB rep is smoking -- those are routers. Also, FFS right on the product page it says: "Integrated modem: no"

r/techsupportSomeone’s telling me WiFi mesh systems aren’t routers

Routers route packets from the internet to the devices on the network.  In consumer routers, they also perform NAT so all your devices can share a single IP address that your ISP gives you. Modems convert whatever underlying WAN signaling into ethernet (Modulator/Demodulator).  The fiber equivalent is an ONT or Optical Network Terminal) which coverts the fiber optic(light) signals into ethernet. And an access point bridges your wired Ethernet network to WiFi. Devices can perform one or more of those roles, and many times those roles can be enabled or disabled in the admin page.  This is where a lot of the confusion comes from.  Many ISP supplied routers also are modems and access points for example. And practically every consumer router available is also an access point.  But not every access point sold is a router. In the case of the EERO, one of the nodes will be both a router and an access point, and the other nodes will just be access points.  None of them will be a modem or ONT because it doesn't have any ports other than Ethernet, so there's nothing for it to convert.
