Amazon eero 6+ mesh wifi router - Supports internet plans up to a Gigabit, Coverage up to 1,500 sq. ft., Connect 75+ devices, 1-pack

I purchased the Amazon eero 6+ mesh WiFi system in September 2024 for $238, and I'm absolutely blown away by its performance. As someone who previously used a Google Home system with Google WiFi and an onHub router, I can confidently say that the eero 6+ is in a league of its own.ProsLightning-Fast Speeds: The speed improvement is remarkable. I'm consistently getting speeds 5 times faster than my previous setup. Using Fast.com on my MacBook Pro M1 (2021), I clocked 540 Mbps - something I've never experienced before.Consistent Performance: With my 1 Gbps plan, I'm now regularly seeing speeds between 890 Mbps and 970 Mbps during network tests. This consistency is impressive and a huge upgrade from my previous system.Easy Setup: The installation process in September was smooth and hassle-free.Reliable Coverage: The mesh system ensures strong WiFi signals throughout my home, eliminating dead spots.ConsThe only slight regret is not waiting for the Prime Day event on October 8-9, where I could have gotten an even better deal (4 eero 6+ routers for $199).Verdict:The eero 6+ mesh WiFi system has transformed my home network experience. The speed and reliability are unmatched compared to my previous setup. If you're looking to upgrade your home WiFi, especially if you have a high-speed internet plan, the eero 6+ is an excellent choice. It fully utilizes the potential of my 1 Gbps connection, something my previous system never came close to achieving.I highly recommend this system to anyone looking for top-tier home WiFi performance. It's a worthwhile investment that has significantly improved my daily internet usage experience.

I have a lot of grandkids that come over and spend the night. They complained about "my Internet" for years. Works great for the wife and me, but the grandkids were not happy. So I decided to try a mesh system.I read a lot about the various mesh systems out there and decided to give the eero system a try. I decided on the 6+ system because it was the latest release and the price was right for three units. The Pro line was just too expensive; for $400 more I did not see a real advantage.Two days after ordering the eero routers arrived. I quickly unboxed and disconnected the Netgear router and remote Access point that I placed on the upper floor.Our house is about 2,800 square foot ranch. The Internet comes into the basement. I placed the first eero router where the old Netgear router was sitting, connected it to the cable modem, then added power to the eero and used the eero app on my iPhone to begin setting it up. Set-up went pretty quick on the first unit. I then connected the open port on the main eero router to a Netgear switch. The Netgear switch is then connected to a MoCA adapter to give me wired Ethernet connections in three other locations in the house. Those three locations also have Netgear switches connected through MoCA adapters. All but one MoCA are 2.5v and one is a 1.1v MoCA.Next I put the second unit upstairs on top of a dry sink cabinet and set that one up with the app which went quickly. Finally, the third app was placed in one of the two bedrooms the grandkids like to use when visiting.Now I started to do speed tests in different rooms and locations throughout the house. I will honestly tell you that at first, I was not impressed. I expected better speeds/bandwidth then what I was seeing. Since only the main router had a wired connection, the other two units relied on a wireless connection back to the main router. In some cases I was only seeing about 50Mbs in most of the upstairs areas. Ugh!Then I decided to check the speed/bandwidt on my main computer which had a wired connection using a MoCA adapter back to a small Netgear switch next to the main eero router. I was only getting ~150Mbs! That was a "WTF" moment as it should have been around 400Mbs which is the bandwidth I have from the Internet provider.More frustration, but I put that issue on hold for a bit. I started moving the two upstairs eero devices around to different rooms and locations. Sometimes they improved, sometimes not. Frustration.Then I decided to move one of the eero devices to the media cabinet where I had a small Netgear switch connected to a MoCA adapter which of course went back to a MoCA adapter connected to the main eero router. I did not do this originally because I tried to locate the two upstairs eero devices as centrally in the house as possibly.That really changed things. Suddenly I was getting better speed and bandwidth from not only the wired upstairs eero device ~400Mbs, but also to the second wireless eero device. So now I had a better wireless signal with the wireless eero device.Then back to the main computer. Still only ~150Mbs. For grins I had a moment where a light went off....let me try shutting the power off to the 1.1v MoCA adapter. Checked the speed on the main computer again, and over 400Mbs. Now I knew that MoCA was backwards compatible, but after this I did some reading. What I missed is that when you mixed versions, the entire MoCA Ethernet will go to the bandwidth of the older MoCA in use. Makes sense now, but what did not make sense was that they same set-up was being used pre-eero install and was not an issue. Then when I reconnected power to the 1.1v MoCA, the speed not the main computer was still at ~400Mbs. I cannot explain that, but I did order a cheap Trendnet 2.5v MoCA from Amazon and replaced the old version so that now all MoCA adapters were at version 2.5.Since everything seemed to be running well now, I just experimented with placement of the remaining eero unit that was being used wirelessly seeing where I got the best speed when devices were connected to it. Finally settled on the guest bedroom.The last thing I did was change the IP addresses and range to match what I had on the old Netgear routers and even assigned four of the hardware devices fixed IP addresses as before.The grandkids have stopped complaining about the WiFi. I am also very happy.I should also add that when the grandkids are not here, we have close to 70 devices connected to the network such as Echo devices in each room, iPhones, iPads, Fire Tablets, TVs, Fire TV units. several computers including Raspberry Pi units (my ham radio hobby related Pi's), home automation with a Habitat and God only knows what else.My advice if you buy the eero system. Do not get discouraged if you run into issues. Keep trying. Mine was a bit more complicated because of the MoCA Ethernet network and all the devices I have connected. Yours may go in much easier. Try to use a wired connection to at least one eero on each floor of your home. Also keep moving the eero devices around for best placement and speed/bandwidth.If you have issues and questions, eero has great community forums. I never asked any questions, but did use the forums to locate issues/suggestions that others had which helped me quite a bit. In summary, I am very happy with the eero 6+ system.

Didn't realize how badly we needed this until I actually got it. Just had some extenders and was constantly dropping signal. A friend told me to get this and I am amazed how well it operates (and how behind the times I am). Very simple set up, just download the app. Plug it in and I was all set. No issues with existing connections to the previous network and can easily control access to the network for devices, guests and time allotments for kids. That is not even mentioning the speed and range which is also unbelivable. I am really happy with my purchase and highly recommend

I got these to replace my 4+ year old google nest mesh router’s. I decided to get this three pack to limit any dead spots. My home is 1300sq ft 2 bed 2 bath flat roof. I have the main unit in my laundry room furthest to one end, the other is in the middle of the house and last one in the bed room furthest end other side of home. That should give coverage and then some. It’s hooked up to a Verizon wireless box slated for up to 300 gbps down and 20 up. With the old system I averaged high 100’s to low 200’s down and 7 up. This new system I’m hitting 300+ down 19+ up.The setup was a breeze following the app it was up and running in minutes.I really like having the dual band that gives you the option to pause the 5G to allow 2.4 access for those devices not running 5G.The app is decent and gives you info on everything that’s using your network and notifies you as new devices are activated. Theirs a tab to test the network however I’m finding this very inaccurate and well below the true speeds, and sometimes I cannot get it to work at all. I use the speed test app for my readings.So as for now I’m satisfied with these units and if they keep giving me the speeds I’m currently getting I will remain happy.If their are any significant changes I’ll update my review.
