6+

I've 2 installed. One three years, one 1 year. I'm nowhere near a coastal area, and one has corroded like it's been in a saltwater bath. The newer one is starting to corrode too. They occasionally just go offline despite my house being timber frame and having 4x Eero 6+ units casting one hell of a s

Your son who games will not be happy with WiFi, he'll need to be connected by Ethernet to be happy. I'd suggest Leaptel an eero 6+ 2 pack and a cheap 1 gbps ethernet switch. Ethernet switch will most likely cheaper bought online along with some short ethernet cables. Connect Eero 6+ into NBN NTU wit

They essentially extend your signal and make it stable. Look up eero on amazon. I got the 6+ and they are amazing. And since it’s Amazon if it doesn’t fix the problem just return them.

Can't speak to the eero 7 models but have been using the 6+ routers for a year and a half and they work great.

KISS... Thats' the best approach to be honest. Used to manage an avg 15K daily devices on wifi network at an EDU with Aruba gear. For years I was doing DD-WRT, then OpenWRT and Aruba instant gear. One day so a good sale at Costco for a 4pack of Eero 6. Switched and now leave work at work. Again, KIS

Update: pulled out an older WiFi 6 Asus router, and moved PS5 and Portal to it, and it runs flawlessly. Eero just sucks at making routers.

I've half an acre, and my Eero 6+ mesh hits outside pretty well. I've one on each side of the house. Very occasionally it may hit the tiniest extreme blackspot, but I'd say 99% of the garden is covered.

No, I ran 5ghz off a Eero 6+ wifi 6 router. Swapped to Eero pro 6E and now I get not stuttering at all on my tablet. My speeds are more consistent at 800mbps when I have 1gb Download. Definitely makes a difference. 6E provides 6ghz connection.

I’ve had no issues with my eero 6+ units. They are wired backhaul. All HomeKit and matter devices work flawlessly. Even the ones that are at the edge of the WiFi bubble.

That was my thought. They might be best off upgrading, and buying their own higher spec eero router and using the 6+ as the extra APs. Like, do you NEED 2Gig at the end of your garden, or out on the main road. Make the most of 2Gig in the core area, then be happy with the 1.2 or so that the mesh ach
