Signal Strength Between Units

Idea for the app, I recently had an issue where one of my four units had signal issues.  Your tech support helped out and replaced the one bad unit.  All is better now.  In the conversation with support, they ran a LAN test.  It would be nice to have this option through the app as well as showing the signal strength of each unit in order to maximize the system.

    The status of this request says 'implemented', but I don't see where within the app I can view the signal strength of each Eero other than the icon next to each device indicating the signal strength for whichever Eero it is currently connected to. Also, what do the different colors mean? I assume green means good and amber means slow. Is there a 3rd color I have yet to see (e.g., red)?

      Jeff C. since the gateway eero is the primary eero as described in the link you shared, if I have a setup that has multiple Gen 1 eeros and 1 Gen 2 with 2 beacons, should the Gen 2 eero be connected at the gateway or in the most used part of the house?  In my set up the gateway is not the most central location. I would like to maximize the usage of the 3 radios on he Gen 2.

      rayburnc  We recommend having your Gen 2 eero in the place where you use your devices the most frequently.

    All my eero’s have Ethernet cable… I would like to see if both of my eero have a good wifi signal and did not overlap… I have 2 in my home and they are in bridge mode on my 8port switch.
