Apparently they can lose their current "state" when rebooted per their developer which means another x number of days before they re-evaluate and readjust to their environment.
I wouldn't worry about exposing myself to the low wattage output of a router during wake or sleep times. There's no scientific evidence that indicates it's a problem.

I notoced when I started enabling the band steering and the optimise for conference calls/gaming, I get a lot of latency/breaks in my conference calls - I don't know which of the 2 is causing this and I don't want to experiment anymore as I literally am on conference calls almost all day. Also, to give other details, my kids are on nintendo switch so these 2 kinds of things are happening at the same time.

Turning on WPA3 caused my Surface Pro (2017) with Win10 to not be able to connect to the network. As soon as I turned WPA3 off, the Surface connected again. No other devices had issues including multiple iPhones, Macs and Windows 7 computers. So looks like I’ll have to leave that feature off for now. But would be nice if you folks can fix it so that the Surface Pro with Win 10 could connect even with WPA3 turned on. That way those devices that can benefit do and those that can’t are still functional.

The “Band Steering” in 3.19.0 Beta is not compatible with HP Wireless Printers.
The report (see image) from the HP Printer says “MAC Address Filtering” is the issue. As there is no feature to manage MACs on the EERO, then I had to disable this Beta Band Steering feature completely, which then allowed the HP printer to connect to the WiFi normally.

Enabling WPA3 broke two kinds of HomeKit devices on my network. Disabling WPA3 fixed them. I am in country: US with an Eero-only home network (no other routers, WiFi, NAT, extenders). Those devices are:
Legrand HKRP20 Plug In Dimmer 35CC; firmware version 1.1.22, hardware version 0.2
Eve Extend 20EAB9901; firmware version 1.1 (410)

First of all, I want to say that I LOVE Eero Secure. It’s great to be able to proactively block known ads and adware before they even hit a client device.
Feature Request:
Please block new devices when they are joined to the network by default. I have kids that like to try to spoof MAC addresses so they can connect to the wireless network and circumvent the Family Profiles in the process.
