That, combined with a faster-than-before AX3000 build, means that your speeds won't drop as much if the Eero 6 Plus routes your connection through an extender that's three rooms away instead of one that's one room away. Even without devices like that on your network, you'll still benefit from the faster connection between the Eero devices themselves. That's the key part of the Plus pitch, and it means that the system can now move data twice as efficiently to 160MHz-compatible devices, of which there are many. One big reason for the Eero's improvement is its new support for 160MHz channel width, up from 80MHz last time around. (You can frequently find it on sale for as low as $195). Overall, it's much improved and much easier for me to recommend, even at its current price of $300.

The new Eero 6 Plus system still isn't perfect at steering connections through the best extender for the job, but few mesh routers are (particularly dual-band systems like the 6 Plus), and this time, the issue is much less severe. Now, Amazon is back, and it seems to have beaten the eggs a bit better than before. The only problem I had with it was its habit of routing my connection through the wrong extender at the wrong time during my battery of performance tests, which caused its average speeds to deflate like a defeated soufflé.

The design was simple and inoffensive, the app was disarmingly easy to use, it offered full support for Wi-Fi 6 and, at $279 for a three-pack, it wasn't terribly expensive. Amazon's Eero 6 had the right ingredients back in 2020, as mesh routers were starting to surge in popularity.
