Just wanted to share my experience with the Eero Wifi system. https://eero.com/.
First, I'd like to say I have NO affiliation/contact/friendship with anybody or anything associated with this company. I'm simply a customer like anybody else. With that out of the way...
I've had spotty WiFi in and around my house for years. I've always blamed it on the amount of Insteon, Z-wave and other various electronics I have in the house. I've even purchased the expensive routers without much luck. I finally got decent coverage with my wifi router in the center of my house, a second router bridged in my detached garage and a third wifi extender to cover some of the yard/deck area. Each device sent a separate wifi network name, so we would have to hope the phone/tablet took care of it but most of the time we would have to reconnect to what was closest to us. What a pain!
Well today that is over! Woohoo! Yup, I'm a grown man and I'll yelling WOOHOO! This morning I got in the mail (amazon) a 3-pack of the Eero Wifi System. I went around and disconnected all 3 of my patch work wifi system and threw them in a drawer. Within 10 minutes I had my first Eero setup and running. I used the same wifi network name as my main router had used (as eero recommended), instantly things started to connect to it! I then went and hooked up the second and third in pretty much the same spots the old system was in. BAM, everything just works! I now have complete coverage of my main house, detached garage and all around my pool/yard/deck. I'd say I'm getting twice the coverage I was getting before and now it all has only ONE wifi network name. It does all the switching for you. I walked all around the yard and in the two buildings and it never skipped a beat.
I currently have 18 devices connected to it and everything is FAST. Much faster than my old netgear/tp-link stuff. Example, last night we were having some trouble sending the Olympics from the tablet to the Chromecast...kept dropping the signal. Not now, nice clean smooth signal.
Well enough rambling. Bottom line...If your looking to upgrade your wireless signal, take a long look at Eero. I'm very glad I did!
