I am looking for a little assistance with my eero setup and problems. I am a little bit technical but do not understand DNS or DCHP (and the other terms used in this forum). We live in a 3000 sq ft condo with a second floor and a finished basement. There are several competing wifi signals from other units.

ISP: Spectrum pay for 500 mbs service

Our network: Gateway Ring Alarm Pro (hard wired to Spectrum modem), a eero Pro 6E and a eero 6 (both wired from switch connected to the Gateway Ring Alarm Pro) and spaced away from the base unit and each other.

Eero secure is “active” but only for ad blocking.

​

On our desktop (hardwired), we routinely show 500mbs to over 1 gigabyte per second speed. A wireless device sitting next to gateway will show in excess of 500 mbs.

​

Our problem: devices connected wirelessly around the condo will be slow to load web pages, frequent drops, or no internet at times. Signal strength from eeros is always HIGH. The devices include apple product (iphones and ipads), oculus, and Samsung tablets.

I have seen where some folks have put the gateway unit not as the main unit and “bridge” (What ever that means) back to the main modem.

​

Any suggestions to reduce drop outs would be appreciated. Thank you.
