[ADVICE] My advice for setting up Eero 6 with Superhub
Wasted a couple of hours trying to get this setup following the instructions. I work in IT so tried all sorts to try and get it working. Put it in Modem mode and PC gets an IP address fine but the eero won't get a connected to the network. Tried with manual IP settings (there is no DNS settings) both on 192.168.10 network and on the other IP address that my PC was getting IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 81.108.246.218(Preferred) >> gave it 81.108.246.100 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.252.0 Lease Obtained. . . . . . . . . . : 26 October 2024 18:57:20 Lease Expires . . . . . . . . . . : 02 November 2024 18:22:55 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : fe80::2a52:61ff:fef1:b01a%2 81.108.244.1 also with no joy. I have 3 eero devices and tried with all three. Did full resets and still no joy. I think the problem is something down to DHCP after you switch to modem mode. If you keep it in router mode then it connects fine and gets the IP. What I have done is gone in and turned off the wifi signals for both so they don't interfere. I could try modem mode now they are setup but I don't want to tempt fate and get back to stage 1 I had similar issues with my superhub 3 but was hoping could get it working fine with superhub 4 with modem mode but same issues abound. To turn off the wifi signals you need to first disable the setting at the bottom and then the other options that are greyed out become active. Now all three eero devices setup and router modem with wifi turned off (I used same network name and pass to make it easy for already setup devices)
Having issues every day since being upgraded to a SH5
As above, recently got upgraded to a SH5 from a 3 - now I'm having issues every day with it - the connection will randomly drop out on the incoming side once or twice a day, with a lot of post-RS errors (it's often much, much higher than these which are the current ones): The wifi is terrible too - it'll often drop the 5ghz network completely and everything will drop back to the 2.4ghz network, sometimes everything reconnects, other times nothing will work until I change the channel back and forth on the router and let it all come back up (even worse, the channel changing bug where it won't change channel unless you also change channel width and then change it back, is STILL there in the software and that's a bug I reported probably 4-5 YEARS ago, come on, really?!) Didn't have any issues with the SH3 like this, possibly a faulty SH5? Anyone had similar issues? I'm also getting awful speed drops, even when the errors on the incoming side stop accumulating, I'll have maybe 60mbps download speed, instead of 1000, and nothing will fix it bar power cycling the router.
