Amazon eero Max 7 mesh wifi router (newest model) - Supports internet plans up to 10 Gbps, Coverage up to 2,500 sq. ft., Connect 250+ devices, 1-pack

Since release I have had the 3 node Eero 6 Mesh system, so for about 4 years. During that time I have only had one incident and Eero support was fantastic. Since the mid 90s I have designed and built out multiple nationwide networks. From small ISPs, to Wireless providers getting into the Internet business to deploying mesh wireless system in corporate offices. I love it, it's great to tinker working to make things better and better. Because of that though I don't want to do that same thing at night or on the weekends unless it's work related. When I have some free time to do what I want, tweaking a network is one of the last things I want do. Yet I must have something that is fast, stable and secure. For years the Eero 6 functioned well however during that time we have added devices, increased our bandwidth and have more people working from home and/or gaming. It was time for an upgrade. Frankly reading the reviews I was concerned about purchasing this system. Yes, we all know that people who are unhappy are more likely to write a review than someone who is but this was definitely not ranked as high as my old system. Regardless I knew if needed I could troubleshoot with the support stand so I gave it a shot with the hope it wouldn't be an ongoing ordeal. I'm very happy to say the setup was one of the easiest if not the easiest ever. I unplugged my old system, plugged in the new primary devices and launched the app. It asked if I wanted to replace the old system, yes. It configured the new device using my same settings (network name, SSID etc...) and I was up and running in less than 10 min with a firmware/OS update. Adding the second device, they are both the same and both have the Ethernet ports, it set it up as the secondary in a couple of minutes. Then I removed the 2 old extension from the app and I was done. I did not have to do anything to all the devices on my previous network as everything stayed the same. That also saved me hours of extra work. While I only have a 1 gig connection we plan to upgrade to 2 in a couple of months and this will more than handle it. I went from getting about 40Mbps in our studio room over wireless to a full gig. The farthest room in the house had the second extension in that room previously just to get it covered. With only the two device system that room is now running 800 Mbps. As the extension is in our den I was able to plug our Apple TV directly in Ethernet and any occasional stutters watching in 4K simply vanished. We are on a cable modem system from our local provider. While I did help set it up in the 90s I haven't helped them in 20 years or so and thus there is nothing special about our connection, it's the same as everyone else in town. I am not using the paid version of the app, the free download has worked just fine for 4 years, worked great on our setup and I see no reason, again not looking to tweak anything, to pay for the extra services. I think most people will be just find using the standard app. At the beginning I noted I had the older 3 node system but got the 2 node Max 7. My house is a single story about 2600 sqft. The gateway is located in the office at the front far side of the house, I placed the extension in an are approximately the middle and I'm getting complete coverage throughout including a good usable signal out front or out back. While it notes 5000 sqft, I would suggest 3000 is probably more accurate from my experience. I definitely would not have needed three and if you can place the your device near the center of your house I believe a single unit would easily cover close to 2000 sqft with ease. Yes these aren't cheap but for us it was well worth the upgrade from a speed a quality of life standpoint and they are powerful enough I hope to get more than 4 years of service from them. Very pleased and highly recommend to anyone who needs more speed, especially if they have a lot of devices around the house. <Edit> I just wanted to add that after 3 months the system is still performing flawlessly, updates have been quick and stable.
