Avoid the Eero Pro 7 - horrid 2.4. Firmware flakey and expensive security bolt-on too - you can't tether your mobile as a backup service…

Got 3 last time, do I get a golden ticket?

They are ok units, and work ok with unraid, however due to their disk controllers I would not run ZFS or BTRFS (Metadata corruption risk)…

Easy. Fits into slim spaces that only a 420l fridge would. Doors are slim so can go next to a wall and not hit. Tall so makes up for lack…

Back in stock.

It has gums. And the Cola is bovine collagen.

School is embracing Ebooks rather than textbooks hence the requirement.

However, when the school expects a 5-7 hour battery those cheap refurbs are pot luck with how long the battery lasts. This side of a power…

A decent battery in a sub $1000 laptop has been a PITA. The only one I found is the Acer Copilot laptop…

Wait til you have had a water line burst…..

There is no equivalent - it’s a tall and narrow fridge with 700l worth of storage space - smartly packaged. As it’s got better tech -…

Never! Though I did get an 4E pair for $239 from rundna this month, but thats rare. There is the Clifton 10 that are on sale, but they are…

At this price it's a good deal. The newer eero 7 and 7 pro units look to be having some issues with the buffer bloat too as they have…

OOS during checkout. There goes my Christmas!

Ahh yes good old buffer bloat. So the Deco does have the advantage there. Im also using the TPlink BE65 - buffer bloat was rated as a C.…

Budget?

You might want to clarify what your after a bit further. Are you after wifi that will cover a long house? or your router is at one side of…

Keep your old phone so when you claim warranty and send your phone off you can still post on ozbargain. Priorities!

The Deco XE75 is a tri band 6e mesh router, vs the dual band Eero 6+ . They perform better when you’re using newer devices in close…

Things are better on windows these days but you pay a premium for a well designed laptop. And the MacBook Air is well priced. You can set…

Some say margarine is better than butter. In this case, this is waste in 2 years when it falls apart. But yes price, and with the cost of…

Yes I read this on other forums. Frustrating! The trick to fixing this is to click on the competitors "buy now" button on amazon I am told.

All schools of thought on the google. Easy, stable, basic. I wish their range was better, but they are set and forget, and I can max my…

Oh yes. I was there in FTTN hell a few years back. Both will work great. Technically the 7 is better, lower latency generally, and the…

How fast is your internet?

For the price, Google as it has the 6e band. Both are as locked down as each other - both require accounts, etc.

Go for the Google Nest Home Pro which is also $299. Tri band, and just works with no fancy stuff, and no add on subscription spam.

Go for the Google Nest Home Pro for $299 - just works - and its tri band not dual band like the eero.

For now yes - waiting for TPlink support to help diagnose.
