A:AnswerThe eero Pro’s do not have a USB port on the units. So you would need to get a USB-to-RJ45 connector, and use an RJ45 cable to connect the printer to one of the RJ45 ports on the back of an eero Pro.
A:Answereero Pro’s are tri-band systems. One at 2.4ghz, and two in the 5ghz range (5.2 and 5.8). To my knowledge, the eero Pro’s do not use any of these for a dedicated backhaul between the mesh units. The eero units determine which signal is the least busy and uses that for a backhaul between two units.
A:AnswerYou need a minimum of 25Mbps for each 4K stream. So I’m going to estimate that you’d be able to stream two 4K videos on your 100Mbps service without any problems, and possibly 3 simultaneous streams.
A:Answer1. eero Pro’s have two RJ45 ports on the back for hardwiring devices needing hardwire connectivity. Beacons do not have any ports.
2. eero Pro’s are tri-band systems (a 2.4ghz, 5.2ghz, and 5.8 ghz signals). Beacons only have two (2.4ghz and 5.2ghz). That allows the Pro’s to experience less signal congestion under heavily used situations.
3. eero Pro’s use an AC power adapter and USB-C cable for power. Beacons plug directly into an AC outlet. That means the Pro’s have a little more flexibility for placement.
A:AnswerThese are routers only and as such require a separate modem to connect to. There are many modem options in the marketplace pretty much any of which will be an inexpensive investment.
A:Answerit creates a mesh network over your entire house. Your router might only go 100ft with a download speed of x - then speed will deteriorate the farther away. This aims to solve that issue by putting multiple routers over your entire house so speed and coverage is always there.
A:AnswerFrom my experience with the units, they are good for about 65-75 feet without much physical interference. When you start going through a lot of walls or over 100 feet the WiFi signal strength suffers.
A:AnswerAbsolutely. We started with the Pro pack that comes with three routers. Have added two more. Works great. I would stay away from the Beacons though. Noticed when we tried to add a Beacon (since it was cheaper) we started to have problems as soon as we added it. Took it off and replaced with a Eero Pro and problem went away.
A:AnswerI was told you could use one as a router, but you are very limited in the ability to plug in accessories. You might want to try out a good router and save this for when you set up a whole house mesh.
A:Answerthis works great, i have the three unit package for a 4000 sq ft house two story,coverage is 10 times better than before and the app even tells you if you should reposition the additional routers for an improved signal. Best i have ever used.
A:AnswerI have the spectrum modem/Wi-Fi router and it worked great with eero’s. you just have to connect one directly to the router and leave it at the router location.
