Does the thought of installing a Wi-Fi router make your head spin? Join the club! Luckily, Amazon has our not-so-tech-savvy backs with these sleek Eero mesh Wi-Fi routers. The user-friendly devices aren’t just a breeze to install — a helpful app walks you through every step — but they’re also attractive and offer fast, dependable internet to keep you browsing, streaming and working without interruption. Here’s the download on this deal and other post-Christmas savings.
Eero
This Eero router system, which helps eliminate Wi-Fi weak spots, can be expanded to cover your entire home.
Why is this a good deal?
At nearly 40% off, this is an absolute steal, especially when you consider how easy it is to set up and install. Don’t spend a fortune on complicated routers with features you don’t need; instead, just pick up one of these babies.
Why do I need this?
“But wait,” you might say, “I already have a router.” The one that comes from your internet service provider is not the same as a mesh router. A normal router broadcasts from one area, and the farther away you move from it, the weaker your Wi-Fi becomes. A mesh router system broadcasts from every unit, so spacing them apart in your home can help eliminate Wi-Fi dropoffs and dead zones.
Note that this older model doesn’t have quite the same features, but it’s half the price of the newer version and most people won’t notice the difference. (The newer model supports faster speeds — up to a gigabit compared to the 550Mbps supported by this one.)
What reviewers say
“Awesome,” one fan said. “I bought the Wi-Fi router and this product for all the rooms and it is working great; no more drops or lags when [gaming]. Easy to set up in the app. It’s worth every penny. … My whole family is happy I bought this product.”
“Replaced my router with this one. Very easy to set up. I also purchased an extender plug in. I watch my Fire Tablet while walking on my treadmill which is located on other side of house. It loads my streaming services immediately and I never get the spinning wheel like I was with old router and extender. Highly recommend for price and performance,” said another user (with a cushy-sounding workout setup).
A final user summed it up succinctly: “It improved the speed and connection for all of my devices. It has a sleak look and works great.”
