Amazon eero 6

Another great mesh router from Amazon

- Cliff Joseph

£279 FROM Amazon, amazon.co.uk FEATURES Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), dual-band 2.4GHz/5GHz, 1.2GHz, quad-core processor, 4GB flash memory, 512MB flash storage, 2x Gigabit Ethernet ports

Eero is now owned by Amazon, and rather than being ‘version 6’ as the name suggests, the eero 6 is the first model to introduce Wi-Fi 6 technology (aka 802.11ax).

At just £279 for a three-piece kit, you get a primary router and two ‘extenders’, which provide dual-band Wi-Fi 6 capable of covering homes up to 5,000sq ft in size.

There are plenty of faster mesh systems available (including the tri-band eero 6 Pro), but the eero 6 stands out as being one of the most affordable mesh systems to offer Wi-Fi 6, and the 1,800Mbps speed should be fast enough for basic web browsing and streaming video on most home broadband connections.
