Everyone giving the Eero app 1 star probably doesn’t even know the difference between their modem and router. App works amazing and the simplicity is something I never experienced in routers. Setup was dead simple. Lack of user assessable toggles are a plus for me. I always drove myself crazy looking through the unsecured webpages of other manufacturers products looking for toggles to improve your Wi-Fi experience. All I’ve ever needed was port forwarding but of course the app has it, and luckily so far with these Eeros I have yet to experience and NAT issues like I have with every other router. Every small issue or question I ran into, I found a forum from eero explaining how to resolve something or just giving a general idea of why something is happening, and I love that. Even from how nice the Ethernet cable / cables feels, to setting these up, and the great packaging is small details that prove the care put into the product. I tried the Orbis just out of curiosity and being a nerd. But time and time again people seem to love Eeros support and transparency, unlike Orbi. Eeros are rock solid and provide coverage all around my house and in the yards. Super happy with the whole product.

I’d love to give this a perfect rating. Our network is massively better than what it was. We even have coverage at the back of the yard now. But there is a glaring oversight in the set up app that is the kind of thing that really bugs me when developers don’t think of possible scenarios. As you go through set up, there are two instances where the app requires an internet connection. The new network isn’t set up at this point in the process yet, so that means the app developers have assumed everyone has cell coverage in their homes: I don’t. So the app just keeps spinning with ‘this should only take a couple minutes’ as it tries to register your account. Why do developers not put in contingencies for this sort of thing? Why does the app not recognize there is no internet connection and prompt you with a ‘We detected no network, so we’ll register your new account after your set up is complete” message? I had to unplug the Ethernet cable in the middle of setup, and set up my old router, just to register my new eero system, then unplug it and replug in the eero, which coincidentally confused the heck out of the app, so i had to restart the whole process. This happened twice before i got it set up. I realize it’s probably a small amount of users who dont have cell coverage at home, but this sort of oversight for a product of this caliber (and it is great once it’s working) is frustrating.

Been using for a few months now. My speeds have been consistently high throughout the house. Best connections I've ever had, with my limited experience in home networking. I have at least 10 devices connected at all times, and haven't experienced/noticed any drops. The app is mostly functional on my iPhone 12 Mini. The HomeKit feature is the only problem I have- Is the "Set Up HomeKit" button supposed to do something? When I'm disconnected from the network, it prompts me to connect to the network to use the feature. I tap "Join". I wait. Nothing happens. When I tap the button while I'm connected to the network, nothing happens. Is this expected? If I have a Home, does the HomeKit feature just work in the background? I don't see any clear answers to this in FAQs or forums. Again, this is my only frustration with the system. Overall, would recommend.Update:Fixed the problem by uninstalling the eero app, disabling my VPN completely, then reinstalling. Afterwards, I got the HomeKit feature working pretty quickly by just following on-screen instructions.

I just got new fiber optic internet and is the first time I've ever had fiber anything. I had Spectrum WiFi up till a day ago and although it wasnt fiber it was blazing fast and it was hooked up to my Orbi Mesh System which improved it dramatically!!!! While it was on just the Spectrum channels meaning the 2.4g and the 5g it registered only at around 200mbps but as soon as I hooked up Orbi that was a wrap!! It registered 460Mbps download speed and 35 upload speed all the time and all over the house and yard I even have bars 2 doors down from my house! It also runs my security wireless cameras flawlessly as well! Now, I just had VexusFiber install their fiber WiFi and I tell you what its super blazing fast! It came with the eero mesh system and I left it for a few hours to test it out and it was ok but the range wasn't satisfactory to me so I hooked Ole Orbi back up and it's freakn phenomenal! It consistently tops out at 420mbps download and get this the upload comes in at the same 420mbps! I don't know if that has to do with fiber or what but the installation guy said he thought it would throttle down but that's not the case the upload stays on par with the download which is crazy but great! The Orbi is hands down without a doubt the more superb package but eero can do the job for most!
