sorted byI have a whole host of Zigbee devices already, using a RPI. Is this another Hub? Inside a mesh?
2 of them setup fine and updated firmware. However the 3rd required powering off and restarting multiple times before it would state I was on latest 6.14 software.
I've had complaints of streams buffering if not the main gateway node and pinging devices on other nodes is really sporadic at times, sometimes hitting over 100ms to a device.
I'm also trying to get straight answers from my family but according to them they did not input the wifi password onto a mobile phone and it somehow automatically connected to the eero system even when the ssid and password was unique to this new eero system.
For £303 I really expected a more seamless and better experience. I'm really considering going for something much cheaper. I do think Amazon acquiring Eero has put them under so much strain to support all this other stuff it's really hit reliability and performance.
I’ve tried a lot of mesh systems recently.. I’m still using old BT discs from years ago as nothing has beaten them yet (despite them being rated as slower speed). I tend to agree that software causes a lot of the problems.
The most recent system I tried was ASUS Zen Wifi XT8. They looked promising to start with but had no ends of problems with drop outs, devices not connecting etc. and so after reading up turns out their implementation of wifi 6 is really buggy.
The one thing my BT discs are missing really is the ability to tie devices to a specific node. If they could do that I’d prob wait for something else despite the slower speeds.
Long ass comment over. But hopefully helps… (edited)
It worked well on my existing BT line and speed was great but shame I had a lot of problems with it, sometimes it connects sometimes it drops.
Bought ASUS XT8 Mesh system in the end and never looked back! ASUS’ mesh system works so well!!!
Had the XT8 system and we had issues with wifi - this was with multiple devices including PS5, phones, laptops.
The devices would show a full wifi signal, but no internet - the only way to fix this was to disconnect and reconnect. Very annoying.
It was a known issue at the time with Asus routers, so I returned the devices, and got Eero (5) Pros - and now Eero 6 pro - after one of the 5 pros died and Amazon refunded.
Not had many issues, if any at all with my Eero setup - set up and almost forget about it.
Never had a problem with either of them so far. Both with and without VPN.
My wife has also used it off of VPN for meetings, with no issues.
Can't comment on Sky TV box as we have Virgin TV - no issues connecting to any devices, so I am guessing there's something else going on with your units.
I wish I was in a position where I was saying “oh no, I have 900mbps I best upgrade” still on 75mbps here, and only now starting to get options for 100-300 showing up recently in my area. So I’m “future proofing” haha.

I currently have 2 that are still working after I left talktalk 6 months ago and moved house to a virgin media only property.
Contemplating whether to buy these (I think this is the cheapest ever price?) in case the talk talk ones some day get blocked.
Hmmmm
Speed aka wifi6 isn't what i need, its latency and range. (edited)
Not sure whether to get 6+ or 6 Pro's 2 pack though.
Now it looks like they've reduced it further to £284 - but without an instalment option, it seems.
Does anyone know if Amazon does partial refunds on items reduced within a certain time of purchase?
I have a 3 story house in which each floor is approx 45x40 foot and found the 3 pack way overkill. 2 should be way more than enough for anybody. Took one out of the network and no real difference so I'm sending the 3 pack back and getting the 2 pack. (edited)
