• If you have a dead spot, try to place your new eero device between the dead spot and
another eero device to ensure a strong connection.

underneath any large furniture.

eero 6+ Quick Start Guide
¹ Internet connection speeds and availability depend on the speed of the internet plan you have with Tangerine. If your
internet plan does not provide you with the maximum supported speed achievable with your eero device, you will not
experience that maximum speed. Maximum network speeds, if applicable, reflect combined supported speeds across
wired and wireless clients. Maximum wireless signal rates are derived from IEEE 802.11 standard. Specifications assume
wired Ethernet connection; your experienced speed may vary when connected to an eero device that is configured
as a wireless extender. Eero devices are only compatible for use with FTTC, FTTP, HFC and Fixed Wireless internet
access technologies. Coverage estimates are based on normal use conditions. Actual range and performance can
vary, and maximum supported speeds may not be available to all customers, due to factors such as local regulations
(including power limits), network configuration, interference, connected devices, device usage, building materials,
and obstructions. Specifications are based on use of a Wi-Fi 6 or later generation client device. See https://eero.com/
legal for more details regarding terms for eero products, software and services. For more information about eero
performance, visit support.eero.com.

retail price (RRP) per account current at that time as part of your standard monthly bill until your eero Secure
