    WPA3 sure stinks.

       That’s not it because other routers handle it fine with various devices. Also, I said stink, not suck.

    It would be cool to have the option to give the Optimizing gaming and conference option where we can add the device "ip address" to that setting. basically add have the option to set a ip address for the setting to its job.

    The ability to have a device connect to a specific erro would be nice. Basically making that device connect to the same erro every time or stay connected to that erro. This would be good for gaming consoles that need to not jump from nod to nod

    The beta area in eero probably started out as a good feature, but for as long as I have used eero routers, it has become a bad joke. There’s obviously no serious intention of advancing these features as standard choices, and I can infer why. They just aren’t useful in the eero setting.

    If theup are, incorporate them into regular settings. If they are not, please discard them and move on.
     

    Thank you for soliciting feedback on this topic.

    Hello all. Brilliant product and has solved many problems. 

    Please can someone shed light on if there is a facility for 'TOD' rules as you get on a normal router, I have searched the options but cannot find this. TOD is a 'time of day' rules allowing for the user to customise when an item can and cannot access internet, for an item as advanced as this it must have the ability to set 'rules' for example for gaming.

       With the eero Plus subscription, you can setup profiles for devices and schedule when they can and cannot have internet connectivity.

    Hello again, After some excellent advise I would like to upgrade my 'free' subscription to the pay type which will give me access to more features like setting profiles and times of access to the internet however I cannot seem to find information on how much this is and how to do this...

       An eero Plus/secure subscription is not needed to use Profiles or Schedules, Plus/Secure just adds the content filter capabilities to the profile.

      However, to subscribe you can do that via the app under Settings->Account, you can also sign up on account.eero.com. If these are ISP provided eero you may need to go via the ISP.

      If you have any difficulty signing up send us an email to support@eero.com and use the subject line "Community Followup - eero Plus sign up issue" so we can take a look and give you some help.

    WPA3 disables my HP printer. Disabling enabled my printer to connect to WiFi. Could do with a fix so I can leave it on and use my printer.

    HP does not support wpa3 like other products out there 

     

    Shut it off.  You do not need to use wpa3

      how?

       this is the encryption used in WiFi 6.  It's stronger than wpa2 and wifi6 allows for faster speeds and larger data transfers.

      So shutting this off will fix your printer issue, but will not allow wifi6 to work.  Hp printers and Tesla wireless chargers are some products that don't support wpa3.

      thank you I have neither so should be okay then. Thank you for your reply

       WPA3 and WiFi 6 are separate things. Having WPA3 turned off doesn’t impact the performance that WiFi 6 brings.
