Want the best WiFi San Diego? You may want to consider Eero if you don't live in a 30,000 square foot castle, plan on using it in a business with 300 people, are super computer guy, etc. Why should you put Eero on your short list and specifically, the new Eero Max 7 WiFi router? You may have read or watched our old videos previously including

All the mumbo-jumbo aside...let's hit on what the above REALLY means in 2024 and what it will mean to you.

Whole Home Wi-Fi Coverage 

Eero claims 2500 square feet of coverage with this unit. This is up from 2000 square feet from the old Eero Pro 6E extender. However, not all square feet are created the same. Do you have 2500 square feet in a high-rise with 3 floors, concrete between levels and lots of neighbors OR do you have a 2500 square foot single-story, ranch-style home with all of the appliances near the exterior of the home (we'll explain)? Not all homes have the same build or layout. Additionally, Wi-Fi doesn't like certain materials or objects such as:

• Appliances
• Mirrors
• Rock or Tile
• Electrical Panels
• Lathe and plaster

If your WiFi has to propagate through these materials, you may get less range than expected.

In one of our tests, we hooked up the Eero Max 7 in a 2-story home with a sunken garage that is just over 2800 square feet. It performed admirably, providing high speeds in all areas. It actually performed better in many areas of the home than the previous WiFi system which was comprised of 2 X Eero Pro 6e units. The Max 7 had speeds up to 3 times what the Pro 6e extenders provided in certain rooms and this was awesome!

However, we got LESS coverage outside of the home above with 1 Eero Max 7 router vs 2 X Eero Pro 6E extenders. Getting WiFi through walls, stucco, applicances, etc. can be tricky and thi is where it can be helpful to have multiple Eero units to get around these obstacles. 

Wi-Fi Roaming

Today's Wi-Fi mesh systems claim "You can roam anywhere with our new mesh system" but this isn't necessarily true. The advantage of higher-end Wi-Fi systems that occupy a space above the Eeros, Netgears, Googles, etc. of the world is that they can be configured to do a MUCH better job with roaming or using Wi-Fi in areas that are located far away from where your router is. If you are video conferencing, walking around while making Facetime calls or Zooming away from your route location, this can be a problem for many mesh systems and this is where the Eero Max 7 can be a huge benefit.

Let's take the 2800+ square foot house we referenced earlier. In that home, your phone/tablet/computer would have to connect to multiple Eero units if you were attempting to Zoom or Facetime from different areas of the house. This can lead to break-ups in signal or the "Unable to connect" message on Zoom...OH NO! This can happen when your device gets confused and doesn't know which Eero extender to connect to. Today's mesh systems aren't smart enough AND your device isn't smart enough to automatically and instantaneously connect to the optimal WiFi extender. This is where the Eero Max 7 can be beneficial.

If your WiFi router has greater range, the issues listed above may go out the window because your devices don't need to bounce around between multiple WiFi units. In the house above used for testing, the Max 7 was perfect solution as it completely covered the interior of the home with fast WiFi. With the older configuration, there were 2 Eeros used to cover the house and this caused frequent break-ups when attempting to move through the house on Wi-Fi calls or Zoom. Moral of the story: Fewer Wi-Fi extenders = GOOD.

Eero vs Google WiFi - What's the best mesh WiFi?

Eero vs Google WiFi

When it comes to good WiFi...you ain't got time to mess around! The Google Mesh WiFi product has gotten very popular lately buuuuuuuuuuuuut...we don't recommend it. As this just came up 30 seconds ago at one of our clients' homes, here's another reason to pass on Google WiFi and to go with Eero mesh systems...the pioneer in the WiFi mesh category.

Conan was wrong when he said the greatest things in llife are to "Crush your enemies, drive them before you and hear the lamentations of their women." We think the greatest things are:

Seeing a 70 yard football throw
Knowing how to get better WiFi

2021…it looks like we're coming around the corner here from the nightmare that was last year. If you saw our "Best TV of 2020" article from a year ago, you'll notice that it looks very similar to this list. This isn't a cop-out...we promise! There wasn't much product build and introduction with Covid so there wasn't a ton that changed. We’re listing below our own personal “Best of 2021” list for televisions, surround sound receivers, home speakers, WiFi products, universal remote controls and more.
