If your router cant handle or make the most of the upgraded connection then a faster plan might not make a difference.
Thankfully there is a way to maximise your internet connection by making sure that your router is up to date.
Research by Opensignal showed that using a router with newer Wi-Fi generations can sometimes double the speeds experienced in your home compared to older models.
The eero Pro 7 has tri-band Wi-Fi 7 technology that helps to support the increased demand that the modern household needs.
The eero Pro 7 isn’t just about delivering fast speeds but also better bandwidth.
On top of supporting increased network demands, when the eero Pro 7 in combined with multiple eero devices a mesh network can be formed in your home giving you a steady fast connection across a larger area and even on multiple floors.
An out-of-date router is a common bottleneck with the report by Opensignal showing that 64 per cent of those surveyed were using older Wi-Fi generations that aren’t capable of delivering the types of speeds that the NBN offers.
Research showed that 26 per cent of customers who paid for 500Mbps download speeds had routers using Wi-Fi 4 which is only capable of up to 100Mbps.
The eero Pro 7 has a stack of five star reviews on Amazon and rightly so.
One customer says: “Gone are the frequent dropouts due to having concrete walls through our house.”
Another writes: “The speed is much faster, and managing devices through the app is super easy. Highly recommend!”
One reviewer praises the coverage of the eero Pro 7 and says: “The signal is strong and without gaps throughout the house. Easy to set up and great link with other eero compatible devices like Amazon echos.”
