Modern Wi-Fi may be fairly decent, but it is not without its drawbacks.

Most routers tend to provide what might charitably be called "spotty" connection quality at the edge of their coverage radius. Interference from certain types of building materials can make connection in certain areas of your home completely impossible. Finally, connecting too many devices to a network is a surefire way to reduce network speeds.

So far, most of these problems have been solved by connecting to Ethernet whenever possible: placing PCs close to the router, using equipment that runs Ethernet through your home's wiring, or manually running large amounts of cable to wherever connections are needed. Mesh networks offer an alternative to this, but even mesh networks have their limitations.

Wi-Fi 6 is the answer. the latest generation of Wi-Fi hardware, Wi-Fi 6 is the perfect update for the smart home and the Internet of Things. not only does Wi-Fi 6 support nearly twice the maximum speed of Wi-Fi 5, it is designed to improve efficiency in highly congested wireless networks. Wi-Fi 6 is designed to not only support nearly twice the maximum speed of Wi-Fi 5, but also to improve efficiency in highly congested wireless networks. [The number of smart devices that can come online with a Wi-Fi 6-enabled mesh network will increase exponentially. increase. Plus, you no longer have to worry about areas of unstable connectivity, and you can extend Wi-Fi to wherever you need it without noticeably degrading performance. Basically, if you want to cut the cord and be free of Ethernet forever, this is the way to do it. That's where Eero comes in. In addition to significantly enhanced performance over previous models, the new series of eero 6 mesh networking hardware fully supports Wi-Fi 6 and includes a Zigbee smart home hub.

The eero Pro 6 and eero 6 are available for pre-order now, with a scheduled release date of November 2, 2020.
