So glad I came here in time to read this. I bought my Eero 6 router about 2-3 weeks ago. I love how it works but am disappointed to see so many years of requests have gone by with no real effort to provide vpn. Selling a monthly service (for an incomplete solution) , is not the answer. Guess the best way to get the point across is to hit back. I still can return my router where I bought it for another week. I will do so tomorrow and buy one of the routers recommended by edgarcia78 here. Thanks for the help edgarcia! Too bad as this was easy to set up and use. Smarten up Eero!

I also created an account just to add to this thread.
Im lucky I found this, was about to go drop $600 on the pro 6 system.. would have been PISSED once I figured this lack of basic features were not there. Also that they haven't even responded to this thread in 3 years. Ill definitely be going with a different brand..

I have the eero secure+ which comes with Encrypt.me. I would like to connect to some services but Encrypt.me only works from a PC App, so I have PrivadoVPN which has an App for the TVs. Ideally, I would like this feature which would eliminate the additional VPN. Add timeframe for VPN as well (connnect to VPN from this time to this time, or VPN on/off, or various VPNs)

Yes please. Nord or ExpressVPN.

Looks like this topic is still under consideration and highly disappointing Eero still hasn't done anything about this. I just became a Eero user and not sure if I should return it, also a NordVPN user.

this is seriously not done yet. Im selling my eero 6 pro tonight.
what a joke of a company.
bye.

I use Starlink for my internet with eero as my wifi router. The fact that Starlink does not allow port forwarding and eero does not allow native VPN is a huge problem. My home security system is a dedicated Windows PC running BlueIris to manage my cameras. I can not remotely access this PC without using some convoluted 3rd party software (ZeroTier). Starlink and eero are major players in the IT market yet don't seem to play nice together. I am seriously considering dumping eero for a router that allows native VPN. Please make this a priority.

Just adding my vote. Please add this feature.

I still can’t believe so much time has passed, and such a basic feature like this is still not implemented.
-
I can tell you it still really sucks. It is just a PIA, where I live, I have no choice but Starlink, but I do for a router, I will be dumping eero in the future.

I would like to vote for this also. I need a static IP address for work. My ISP requires that I upgrade to a Business Account to get a static IP address. With NordVPN, I can establish a remote static IP address mapped to my home address for a reasonable price. But once connected, I need a solid firewall on the receiving end. My Eero does this for me already for my existing dynamic IP address and it would make sense to just connect the remote static IP address to my Eero and then let the Eero act as my firewall. Please consider implementing.

It has been 6 years since this was first requested and yet eero have done nothing even though it is supposedly “under consideration” and has been for quite some time. If you have no intention of ever implementing this feature why not just be straight with us and close this thread? Every time I get notified of a new reply I think maybe this is it, they’ve finally added a feature that a lot of people have requested and it shows that they care about us rather than just our rental fees, that seems not to be the case once again.

If this is ever implemented, it would also be nice if this could be configured per profile, so we could assign devices to the VPN connection.
-
ExpressVPN Eero app with lightway protocol and the ability to tag the VPN to certain devices / profiles would be key.
