Feature Request: Add support for PPPoE
many ISPs, including CenturyLink require PPPoE. Without this support, eero cannot be used as a router and only as a bridge.

I literally signed up for this support forum just to voice my extremely strong support for this incredibly basic feature: PPPoE.

I would think eero would have supported PPPoE right from the start. Now I have to use two routers. Double NAT is very undesirable. Please support PPPoE.

I should have done my research. I will be returning the Eero, why would I continue to use a product that I cannot use all the features.

Wanted to add my voice to wanting PPPoE as well. I spent almost 2 days figuring out why my setup was stuck at “Registering your Eero” pages for days. I called support and my modem, app, Eero etc was checked out fine. Then we tried to connect to my router and boom, it worked. Only then we found out that we need to login to the isp using PPPoE. What a bummer to a new user experience of setting up. Please do support PPPoE in future as currently I have to power up a modem, a redundant router and Eero. Very unsightly.

There was some employee involvement in this thread when it first launched a year or so ago. I haven't seen any employee response in ages. I'm about giving up that this will ever be addressed by Eero, which is a shame. I have 3 units that are crippled by this. Yet I constantly get emailed promotions by Eero to purchase additional products and services. Ha!

My main router (with pppoe) looks like it’s about to die, needs resetting at least once a week. I’m at the point now where because eero doesnt support pppoe, rather than replace it I’m just going to buy google WiFi instead and replace everything. A friend of mine recently bought google WIFI and has had a great experience so far.

I'm with you guys. Eero have been extremely useless in recent years. Even their support has become bitter and useless, in addition to being aggressively unhelpful and rude in my experience. I'm starting to really hate them as a company.

Be sure to vote for this feature request at the top of the thread. There are now 24 votes. If there are more, perhaps we can influence the dev's decision.

I work for an small ISP and we love eero. We only do PPPOE though and I can guarantee we'd sell more eeros if they had this feature!

Jeff C. I'm in Product Management, so keenly understand the need to prioritize. Our own support team often has to ask our customers to 'wait'. FWIW, This is a serious market need that your competitors are addressing better than you are. I can write a business case on this in about 30 minutes. LMK if your product teams wants one, no charge. But I'll close with a joke: 'A product manager walks into a bar, asks for drink. Bartender says 'no', but will consider adding later.'

This is definitely a +1 for me. Any update on supporting PPPoE?
-
another +1, I need this badly!
