Sluggish Wi-Fi is one of my least favorite tech problems to deal with because it messes with everything: my work, my smart lightbulbs, my online sessions of Mario Kart World. There are many reasons your Wi-Fi may be wonky, but the good news is that you can solve many of them with better routers. One of the best mesh options is the Eero Pro 6E, which is currently available on Amazon in a three-pack — with a $100 Amazon gift card — for an all-time low of $449.99 ($100 off).
The Pro 6E has been improved with updates since our 2022 review, which is good because our initial experience was plagued with reliability issues. A pack of three routers can create a network that covers up to 6,000 square feet with support for over 100 connected devices at once without throttling. In terms of speeds, it can reach a maximum wireless data transfer speed of 1.3Gbps. Connect one to your cable modem, then spread the other two around to different parts of your home to create a strong mesh Wi-Fi network that’s (hopefully) free from dead zones. Eero’s app makes it easy to set the routers up, and will instruct you on the best practices for positioning them. It can also perform automatic security updates in the background when you aren’t using your network.
