And you can add one or more additional modules to expand your network if and when you need to cover a larger area.

Advanced Wi-Fi features boost connection speeds

It's equipped with multiple-user, multiple-input, multiple-output (MU-MIMO) technology that sends fast Wi-Fi to multiple devices at the same time. Beamforming technology directs wireless signal where it's needed most. And new features like OFDMA and proactive band steering help direct traffic so you get solid speed even in a busy household or business environment.

Convenient app with subscription-based upgrades

The free eero app allows easy setup and management of your network via your mobile device. Regular software updates bring new features, improve performance, and ensure your security is always up to date. The app's free functions let you set up a secure guest network, block access from specific devices, and schedule or pause internet usage for children.

The subscription-based eero Secure app upgrade adds threat scanning, an ad blocker, and family-safe browsing that tags sites that contain violent, illegal, or adult content.

The eero Secure+ subscription tier includes all of the above, and adds VPN protection, antivirus software, and a password manager for an additional fee.

Make connections to the router

Dual Ethernet ports on the router allow you to directly connect to devices that need a lot of bandwidth — think high-res music players, 4K smart TVs, movie and TV streaming boxes, and video game consoles.

Features

eero Pro 6: The eero Pro 6 (K010111) utilizes TrueMesh Technology and WiFi 6 to deliver fast speeds and a reliable signal. The eero Pro 6 offers up to 2000 sq/ft of wireless coverage. It can be set up as a stand-alone WiFi router or utilized as a WiFi Mesch extender to increase the wireless range of your existing eero Pro 6 network system.

Notes:

  • The eero Pro 6 doesn't replace your modem, it replaces your existing WiFi router. The eero WiFi router plugs into your existing cable or DSL modem. If you have a combination modem/router, you'll be using that as a modem only and disabling the routing function by putting it in bridge mode. 
  • In order to use eero, you will still need to have an Internet Service Provider (ISP). eero works with all ISPs in the United States and Canada.
  • eero Pro 6 is backward compatible with other eero network devices and can be used in the same WiFi network system.

Processor, Memory, & Storage: The eero Pro 6 is outfitted with a 1.4 GHz quad-core processor, 1024MB RAM, and 4GB flash storage.

TrueMesh Technology: The eero Pro 6 uses TrueMesh technology to ensure your traffic is always moving efficiently throughout your network. This means your devices stay connected no matter where you are at home while getting the necessary speeds to deliver the same great experience. Multiple eero devices can setup throughout your home and act as access points on your home network and function together as a self-sufficient WiFi system. This means that all your eero devices can talk with one another. Whereas with a range extender, it can only communicate with your router, making its expandability limited to the range of your router.

  • Unlike the familiar router-to-range extender network configuration, eero Pro 6 employs TrueMesh technology that uses multiple access points to provide your home with fast, reliable coverage all on a single network.
  • TrueMesh technology knows the signal strength between each eero device in your home and calculates the best path from your device to the internet. If there's a disruption on any part of your network, TrueMesh dynamically reroutes traffic to keep it perfectly balanced. All this happens in the background so you don't notice a thing.
  • Generally, the number of eeros recommended & needed is one eero for every 1,000 square feet to provide coverage throughout your entire home You can add as many eeros devices to your home & modem as you'd like.

WiFi 6 (802.11ax): The eero Pro 6 uses the power of WiFi 6 to deliver faster speeds, increase your internet's efficiency, and reduce network congestion. WiFi 6 is the latest WiFi technology delivering faster speeds, higher performance, and better support for simultaneous device usage throughout the home. WiFi 6 supports 802.11ax, 802.11ac, 802.11n, 802.11g, 802.11b, and 802.11a.

  • Tri-Band: Simultaneous tri-band WiFi provides three separate WiFi networks - one 2.4GHz band and two 5GHz bands. The 2.4GHz band is used for legacy devices, the 5.2GHz band is designed for media streaming, and the 5.8GHz band keeps network transmissions between eero mesh devices separate from your regular internet traffic. You'll get speeds up to a gigabit and enough bandwidth to connect 75+ devices.
  • MU-MIMO: MU-MIMO (Multi-User, Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output) is the latest advancement towards uninterrupted, simultaneous WiFi connections. Devices such as 4K TVs, HD streaming media players, tablets, game consoles, and many more use a lot of bandwidth, and with MU-MIMO (Multi-User, Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output) technology, the eero system sends WiFi to multiple devices at the same time and same speed. Your whole family can play, stream, and work at once, without experiencing lag or buffering--at up to 2x the speed of a non-MU-MIMO router.
  • Beamforming: Beamforming technology helps improve the quality of voice, streaming of video and other bandwidth and latency sensitive transmissions. Beamforming will direct WiFi signals to each of your mobile devices to increase signal strength and coverage. Play video games, listen to music, check emails, shop online, stream HD movies, and more, without having to worry about dropped signals.
  • OFDMA: WiFi 6 uses OFDMA technology to clear up any congestion. A single transmission sends data to multiple users in parallel and better fills the WiFi channel. This leads to more efficient use of the channel and lower wait times for users to get their data.

Dual Gigabit Ethernet Ports: The eero Pro 6 has two auto-detecting Ethernet Gigabit ports. One connects directly to your modem and the other port provides the option to hardwire devices like an Ethernet switch, printer, or video game console.

eero App: The eero app (for Apple iOS 12.0+ and Android OS 7.0+) allows you to easily set up and manage your eero Pro 6 WiFi system from your compatible Apple iOS or Android device. You'll be able to view and manage your eero network from anywhere with a network or cellular connection. You'll also be able to easily and securely share your network with guests, or block devices from using your network. In addition, you can schedule or pause internet access to manage screen time. The eero app even offers automatic updates with new features, performance improvements, and the latest security standards for your eero system. The eero app automatically runs a speed test once per day; the results of the latest test can be found at the bottom of the app's home page.

Amazon Alexa Compatible: You can control the eero Pro 6 WiFi system with the power of your voice using Amazon Alexa and the eero skill-set. Download the Alexa App (for Apple iOS 11.0+ or Android OS 5.0+) onto your compatible mobile device and install an Amazon Alexa Echo speaker or other Alexa built-in device (sold separately - see Accessories Tab) on your eero network. Now, you can ask Alexa to perform various tasks without needing to open the eero app on your Apple iOS or Android device.

Built-in Zigbee Smart Home Hub: The eero Pro 6 is equipped with a built-in Zigbee smart home hub, eliminating the need for additional Zigbee hubs around the home. Thanks to its built-in Zigbee smart home hub, the eero Pro 6 can connect to compatible devices on your network with Alexa so you don't need a separate Zigbee smart home hub for each device. You will need to link the eero Pro 6 and Amazon accounts to use this feature.

Thread Compatible: eero Pro 6 modules feature Thread technology. Thread creates its own encrypted mesh network for Thread-capable devices. In a Thread mesh network, Thread devices relay information to each other through Thread routers (such as the eero Pro 6) so if one of them goes offline, your Thread devices can find another Thread router and continue communicating with each other. Advantages of a Thread mesh network includes: improved range, lower power consumption, and continued use that's independent from your WiFi network.

Advanced Security: eero Pro 6 uses the latest security protocol in wifi. WPA3 provides an extra layer of password protection and individualized encryption to keep your network and data secure. eero also leverages third-party security auditors to keep your network safe. It even works with the global research community to find and fix issues before you experience them.

Security Subscriptions: eero Secure and Secure+ is a subscription service that provides an extra level of security to your network. With eero Secure and Secure+, you can manage all your security settings and keep track to your networks activity from the the eero app (for Apple iOS 12.0+ and Android OS 7.0+).

  • eero Secure: eero Secure provides the following security features for $2.99 per month or $29.99 per year.
