6+

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

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.

Laptop connected via Cat6 directly to Eero, Eero is connected directly to FTTP. Laptop supports 1gbps ethernet, yet maxes out at 250/300 That is weird. I got the eero6+ too and even on wifi speedtest I am getting almost full 500/50 of my plan. https://ibb.co/qMCkm9CR

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

I run 2x Eero and I love it. Super simple to set up too. Consistent 500-550Mbps upstairs and downstairs, if you are at the very end of the house (through a brick wall) it drops to about ~250-300Mbps. Edit- both are wired, and I have the 6+ version.

No way to fix or improve it because it’s completely locked in. Gonna just buy a real router (the Eero came free w/ Service, never had them, didn’t realize they’d

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.

I've been using S25U 512GB since January and it has been awesome. Got mesh wifi (Eero 6+ 1 Gbps) at home and (Meraki 6+ 2.5 Gbps) at work. No reception or throughput issues whatsoever.
