  • I know nothing about networking. I'm looking for something that will easily allow me to segment off my iot stuff from the Internet (ie allow my iot cameras lights etc to see Home Assistant but not call home). Would the Eeros be a solution to that problem? Or should I be looking at something else entirely?

      eero doesn't do VLAN isolation.

      For VLAN isolation you can get something like the Ubiquiti Unifi Dream Router or Ubiquiti Unifi Dream Machine Pro/Pro SE paired with a Ubiquiti Wi-Fi 6 access point(s), Asus RT-AX86U Pro or Asus GT-AX6000. Asus firmware for VLAN isolation is in beta. What is VLAN and how to setup?

        Thanks to you (and others) for the replies - I tried using a dd-wrt router but configuration was beyond my technical skillset, and the only help video I could find turned out to have some errors in it. I did notice though most of the videos I found on VLANs for IOT use Ubiquiti gear and it looked incredibly easy to configure.

    @Moondog A quick search suggests that the Eero products don't support VLANs.

    You probably should set up a dedicated router to handle that stuff, and then use meshed access points (or a whole different Wi-Fi network) for your IoT stuff

      Currently, VLAN tagging is only available for eero 6 and eero Pro 6.

        eero VLAN tagging is for the ISP WAN side of things.

        eero doesn't allow VLANs to isolate your cameras, smart lights and so on.

    We have these. The Pro got some pretty bad reviews re: value, so these seemed better. They've worked out ok. We have them setup via hardwired backhaul and I love that there are two ethernet ports (unlike Google's Nest Wifi, which only had two on the router, not the cheaper Point units).

    Does Jeff shut down your wifi if your ring doorbell says a racism?

  • Had mine for over a year, while it doesn't give you much flexibility and some of basic features are paid subscriptions (e.g. getting usage stats), it is a simple to use plug and play router.
    I used to config 3 wireless AP points to give my house full coverage and it was just a pain not able to do seamless switching between them.

      I recently bought a pair of the ASUS Zenwifi XD6 over the Eero because of the paid subscription for basic features on the latter. To be honest I don't use many of these features, but it just irks me that it would be put behind a paywall in the first place.

  • I have these, the performance is fine but the heavy Amazon marketing is off putting.

    They also have forced firmware updates, that you can not turn off, which I didn't know prior and would have changed my purchasing decision. Will be looking to move away from them due to that alone.

    Edit: A plus side is the app is pretty good, easy to use and most common and some decent advanced settings accessible. This part I do like.

    • Forced obsolescence patches ey! That does suck

  • Lookong to upgrade from tenda nova MW5c to handle 250mb at all nodes. Any suggestions

    • This. TP link X75 or XE75, Asus XD6

  • you have to have a subscription to see stats on your device which you paid for already, hmm, it's getting "better" with each day
