QuestionIs it a all in one or do i have to get wifi service separate
Asked 2 years ago by Creya.
- Answer This is a wifi router. It is designed so that if you give it internet access via an ethernet cable (this would be via the modem your Internet Service Provider provides you) it will create wifi network for your devices to connect to. The neat thing about eero is if you have additional eero (like the other two in this pack) those can connect to the head/gateway eero (the one hardwired to the modem) either wirelessly or wired and those additional ones will broadcast the same wifi network, giving much greater range and speed for your devices.

Questionyes, i was wondering if i could use a cat5 or 6 cable to run these in the crawl space to extend my network in a single level home. I would want to run the cabling from my existing router and use these as extenders. I have a 2350 sq. ft. home on one lever.
Asked 2 years ago by hector.
- Answer That is fine. You will want to make sure to follow topology requirements, one eero has to be upstream of any other eero for everything to work right. For example you do not want to go internet/router->switch->multiple eero, you want to go internet/router->gateway eero->switch->other eero, even if using bridge mode on the eero.

QuestionI am looking at upgrading to eero mesh wi-fi, I currently have an old netgear router in a 1500sq.ft. house. Would an interior mirrored wall slow down wi-fi signals from passing through?
Asked 2 years ago by Johnniefox.
This question was asked about the related product: eero 6+ Dual-band Mesh Wi-Fi 6 Router (1-pack) - White
- Answer We purchased 3 basic eeros about a year ago. We have a 1250 sqft house. Modem and first eero are located in front office. Second is located downstairs in living room. Third is located in a detached studio located about 50 ft from the house. Considering our experience, I’d say a mirrored wall wouldn’t be a problem. About a month ago, the unit in the studio started having some issues. I’m assuming it was an isolated issue with that particular unit. Upgraded that one unit to an eero+6 and it’s been working great

QuestionWill the eero system serve both 2.4 you need for smart locks etc and 5.0 for needs on the computer?
Asked 1 year ago by Talon.
- Answer Yes, it will work for both. It also gives you the option to temporarily turn off the 5.0 signal so that you can ensure devices that only work with 2.4 can establish that connection prior to turning back on.

QuestionDoes this eero 6+ model support the connection and usage of a NAS device attached to one of the pucks with an ethernet cable? I have a large music library I want to access on a NAS, but I need to know that this eero will support it. Thx!
Asked 1 year ago by MarkB.
- Answer Yes, any device hardwired to an eero will get access to the internet and network. From the device's perspective it will be a hardwired connection (even if that eero is wirelessly connecting to the head/gateway eero).

QuestionI bought the 6+ AX3000 Dual-Band Mesh Wi-Fi 6 Router. Before I buy an extender, I was wondering if this router alone also acted as an extender. Thanks!
Asked 1 year ago by JohnPaul1999.
- Answer Each of these devices can be a router or extender. The first one you setup that is connected to your modem will be the router and extender. The rest will be extenders. I have found if possible to place the extenders where they can have a wired connection to the router however, it areas where that is not possible, you can use wifi connectivity but you need to make sure there is a good signal between the devices when using wifi connectivity. Line of sight is the best option. The app will tell you if the connection is good or not when using wifi to connect an extender to a router.

Questionis cable necessary to get wifi?
Asked 2 years ago by penelope.
- Answer Well, some form of Internet access is required to get WiFi. I assume you are asking for WiFi in your own home. You would require either cable internet, phone line DSL internet, 5G wireless internet (if available in your area), or a satellite internet such as Starlink. Many, if not all, internet providers include WiFi access point capabilities within their routers, although you can supplement your network with separate WiFi access points if the single router WiFi access doesn't provide sufficient coverage.

QuestionAssuming the 1st unit connects to Internet modem via cat5, can I daisy units 2 and 3 in a straight line via Wifi to extend coverage to another bldg? Unit 2 will be weather protected.
Asked 1 year ago by OSUser.
- Answer Yes, you should be able to. As a reminder the eero is not designed for outdoor use and using it outdoors may void the warranty on that one eero, but your plan sounds good. If you don't get good performance out of that setup you will want to look into either running a wire between the two or using a point to point wireless bridge (go gateway eero->PtP wireless bridge 1(--wireless--)PtP wireless bridge 2->eero in remote building).

QuestionI own a Arris modem/router combo and was wondering if this will work with the eero? I have seen conflicting info that you have to disable the router system on the combo. T/F if so how do you disable combo if you dont have the password.
Asked 1 year ago by tabpikau.
- Answer As long as the head/gateway eero gets access to the internet via an ethernet cable it will work with any kind of modem/router. It is recommended to at least disable the wifi up the Arris in this example, having two wireless networks being generated in close proximity makes it very likely that they will interfere with each other, not to mention the confusion of which device is connected to which network. We cannot assist with logging into that that Arris though, there should be guides online on how to reset it or you can call the ISP/Manufacturer you got the modem from.

Questiondoes it work with verizon
Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.
- Answer It will work with any internet provider. However, if the modem that you get from your provider has a router function you will need to turn that off so the eero can act as the router. In many cases, people buy a simple modem what doesn't have a router built in to use with a mesh wifi system like this.

QuestionIf I connect the Eero 6 to my existing Frontier router......can I change the EERO SSID and password to my current Frontier SSID and password? Just to eliminate the need of reconnecting everything.
Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Yes you can. We would strongly recommend that you also change the name on the Frontier router, or disable the wifi on it. If both the Frontier router and the eero are broadcasting the same SSID and password your devices will not be able to distinguish between them, you will have odd connection issues. Changing/disabling the Frontier will ensure you can use your existing name/password on the eero and your devices should connect to it with no issue. Remember that SSID/Passwords are case sensitive and have to be put in exactly right.

Asked 2 years ago by Anonymous.
This question was asked about the related product: eero 6+ Dual-band Mesh Wi-Fi 6 Router (1-pack) - White
- Answer Yes you can. You will still need one eero hardwired to the modem but a second eero can connect to the first one (wired or wirelessly) and you can hardwire devices directly to that leaf/wireless eero and those devices will get a hardwired connection. If you need to connect more than two devices to an eero use an unmanaged switch (like eero->switch->multiple devices)
