"Unifi provide the most stable wifi network for IoT of all the AP on the market, even with one VLAN, even in mesh configuration. ...

I have been through hell with solutions from Apple, Orbi, Peplink, Meraki, Eero, Huawei and many many more. And only since I am rocking on Unifi I can open my Apple Home app with not a single device error !"


"Actually better than a range extender, as Mesh systems are designed from the ground up to work with each other in the system. ... But it's half ass "patched up" jerky jerky mesh was no match to a Deco. Deco was snappier, more reliable, and longer range."

Can you run an Ethernet backhaul to each floor? I have 6+ On 3 floors with backhaul. Very fast.

r/amazoneeroEero announces line of Wifi 7 products (eero 7 and Pro 7)

I bought two 6+s without knowing much other than a friend recommending Eero that is in the industry. The boxes that Centurylink gave me were total garbage. It was night and day and honestly I've been very happy. Now that I have a wired back haul it's even better. Knowing what I do now though I probably would have done pro 6Es instead.

Amazon has the Eero 6+ at Black Friday prices now. I got the 3 pack for $195 a week ago at an early bird rate, which is same as today’s Black Friday price. I have a 2 story 2500 sq ft house and it does as advertised. It took care of every WiFi reach problem I had. I was in my neighbors garage across the street and still had a full signal on my phone!

I'd go with [Eero](https://productbible.com/product/amazon-eero-6-mesh-wifi-system). I'm usually terrible with networking related stuff, but this one was a breeze to setup.

Not too concerned with price, just been on the fence on switching to a ubiquiti eco system but I’ve been very pleased with the single 6+ I have now. For only a 100 bucks I’ll snag another 6+ and run an additional Ethernet to the back side of the house for it and see how that helps out before jumping ship.

r/wifiI need the best wifi mesh system for whole-home coverage
3 months ago

I'm using the eeroesh system. I have the eero 6+. There's newer versions now, and noticed multiple subnets. You can just buy one and setup a new one as an extender with no issue, or buy one with a network jack and use it as a wired extender. I don't have the eero 6 pro,but I still get nearly 959 or greater for download and 850+ for upload speeds on a 1gb line. On wifie purely it's in the 700 to 800 range. I am a computer person, I understand networking, I'm a solutions architect and know how to troubleshoot so many random things. The EERO system has been insanely easy to setup and has been crazy reliable. Have had eero since 2022 and haven't had a single failure

I use Eero, it's been an excellent mesh solution. Very reliable, easy to setup, easy to add nodes and manage the network. Personally, I can't recommend anything but Eero

Eero 6+ or newer (size it to your internet speed from the carrier). Eeros are simple and easy to use. They are not designed for tinkerers. If you want a router you can tweak, buy something different.

r/amazoneeroDon't know which Eero to buy? Here's my updated guide.

While this is a useful list, it does not compare each model to the speed of the internet connection. And it is misleading to consumers, assuming that is who you targeted it to, by posting on Reddit. This list is very biased to Wi-Fi standards and not the needs of individuals buying a router/mesh for their home. While carriers are offering faster and faster speeds, not everyone needs it! The vast majority of homes only need the slowest high-speed, but carriers are happy to push higher speeds to people who clearly do not need it! I manage Wi-Fi at 5 homes, including friends and family. In my personal home, I run a network supporting 2 living units, 6 bedrooms, multiple streaming TVs, up to 12 people at a given time, lots of Wi-Fi attached devices. And all of that works fine on a 3-node Eero 6+ with 400MB service. Since 6+ is good to 1GB service, it is more than fine for this network. Cost $300 for 3-nodes 7 Max is $1700 for 3-nodes! Pro is $700. Neither of those are affordable to most people.

I would absolutely agree with you there, budget allowing. Currently I run two eero 6+ devices (going back in a few days; they belong to my ISP and I'm leaving their area) along with two eero Pro 6 devices (mine, purchased before I switched to my current ISP, which provided the 6+ eeros at no monthly charge). They've all been great devices to run. However, if I were buying today (whether for replacement or just supplementing), I would only look at the various eero 7 options. I probably should have mentioned that, even though it sounded like OP might be looking to spend less!
