    Who has more than 75 smart home products connected at once? Anyone here with a 100? 👀 Is the Eero 6+ and Pro 6E what you have been looking for with Amazon integration and super easy setup?

    Thank you so much for stating your preference in the beginning of the video. Your statement helped me make my decision, I currently have a eero (2nd generation). I have been happy with my eero but I have “1gb internet connection”, but things were getting sluggish with everyone home at once!

      @@dannywinget Danny, I stumbled across this video because I'm trying to resolve an issue I have with an Internet signal, as inexpensively as I can. I live in a rear in-law suite behind my landlords house. He has Spectrum services with premium cable, phone, and Internet. The coaxil cable also comes into my apartment and feeds a premium cable Spectrum box that he pays an extra fee for. I piggyback Internet services through his wifi from the modem and router in his house, but there's too much distance and interference (walls) to get a good signal. I bought a plug in wireless signal enhancer which made the signal bearable for very light Internet surfing, but I cannot stream videos or live sports.
      So my question is this: can you recommend a solution for me which would resolve this problem? Thanks.

    Bought it today and I'm returning it. It's up to a 500mbps difference in speed in some areas in the house.. I wanted to maintain close to 1gig speed in the room above the garage especially. With eero it's 100-200 Mbps slower than without it.

      @user-wc5lw7ps6h1 3 месяца назад +1

      Yes. You will only need a modem. Which you may be able to buy one for yourself that will be better and you'll own it since your ISP is probably charging you for that equipment.

      It’s always better to get the new one IMO. The Pro 6E is great if you have speeds above 1 GIG and need the power to connect up to 100 devices with Tri Band. Maybe grab the Dual Band 6+ if you don’t need all that.

    If I purchase the eero pro 6+, I assume my speeds will still be 350-400mbs?? Any help would be great

Right now I have gigabit speeds from Altice one along with about 40 devices connected on my network. Should I go for the 6+ or pro 6e? Should I just keep the pro 6?
    I don’t even think any of my devices are Wi-Fi 6e compatible.

    • @dannywinget
      @dannywinget  2 года назад
