Eero Pro 6E specifications and price
The Eero Pro 6E is the company’s first Wi-Fi 6E-enabled mesh router. This gives you access to the new 6GHz Wi-Fi band, which should enable faster connection speeds with lesser congestion. Eero promises speeds of up to 2.3 Gbps (1 Gbps wired and 1.3 Gbps wireless) with this tri-band Wi-Fi system. It also claims simultaneous coverage support for over 100 devices. This mesh Wi-Fi system from Eero features one 2.5 GbE and one 1.0 GbE ethernet port. Unfortunately, not many current crops of devices are compatible with Wi-FI 6E. Unless you have one, you might have to rely on the long-existing dual-band (5GHz and 2.4GHz) Wi-Fi, which could mean slower speeds. The Eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system is available as a single router, pack of two, or pack of three. The systems cost $299, $499, and $699 respectively. Eero claims coverage area of up to 2,000 square feet with a single router, 4,000 square feet with two, and 6,000 square feet with the three-pack system. This is a $100 price hike from the existing Eero Pro 6 system, which is also a tri-band router but doesn’t support the 6GHz band. Instead, it boasts one 2.4 GHz band and two 5GHz bands. So the new Wi-Fi 6E-capable system is priced quite aggressively.
Eero 6+ specifications and price
The Eero 6+ is a little humbler router that only supports dual-band (5GHz and 2.4GHz) Wi-Fi. It has two 1.0 GbE ethernet ports and can offer coverage for up to 75 devices simultaneously. In terms of coverage area, Eero claims up to 1,500 square feet with a single router, 3,000 square feet with a two-pack, and 4,500 square feet with three of them. They cost $139, $239, and $299 respectively. As said before, the Eero 6 is getting a price cut following the launch of its successor. The 2020 model now costs $89 for one router, $199 for one router and two add-ons, and $249 for three routers.
