A comprehensive study by wireless engineers could reveal a lot more or yield different results! This rudimentary test involved one device, one independent speed testing service, and one time of day. Note: View my math and speed test results here. At one point, with my old router, I recorded crawling sub-3mbps speeds in my office with the Eero, that didn’t happen. The Eero also solved the occasional connection spottiness I’ve experienced in my office, the furthest spot from the living room (and my usual modem). The fastest download speed I clocked was just over 114mbps, so in this case, 33mbps faster matters. Put another way: Download speeds offered by the Eero were about 33mbps faster than what my old router offered. With an Eero in my living room connected to my modem, one Eero in my bedroom, and another in my office, the system increased average download speeds in the apartment by about 41 percent.
I speed-tested the Eero against my old router, an Optimum-branded D-Link DIR-868L (admittedly the best router an ISP has ever given me), at five- to 10-minute intervals (arbitrarily selected) on Sunday evening, twice in each room. Getting everything set up via Eero’s app took about ten minutes. The only way you’re going to fundamentally fix that is by having multiple units throughout your home. 5GHz Wi-Fi: You get a really bright light, like a stage light, and put that in your living room - you’re not going to see any of that in your bedroom. Now go to your bedroom or your kitchen - you’ll still hear things but faintly. So 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, a good analogy would be: Go get a really loud speaker, put it in your living room. So there are two different types of Wi-Fi: 2.4GHz Wi-Fi (the older stuff) and the newer standard, 802.11ac, that runs at 5GHz. Wi-Fi is a radio wave, just like light and sound.
