How do I set up eero?
Here’s how to get started getting your eero network online:

  1. STEP 1: Download the eero app for iOS or Android:
    Download the free eero app – you can find it on the Apple App Store or Google Play. eero supports both iOS and Android (check https://support.eero.com/hc /en-us/articles/207852793-Which-mobile-devices-can-I-use-to-set-up-and-manage- my-eeros- for details on the versions we support).
    You will not be able to set up your system on a web browser.

  2. STEP 2: Create an eero account or Log In with your Amazon Account
    To begin setting up your new eero network, you will need to get Logged In. You can either Log In using your Amazon Account information, or you can make an eero account. You will need to enter your phone number and email address. By default, we’ll send a verification code to your phone number Enter this code on the verification screen of the app to create your account.

  3. STEP 3: Set up your eero Gateway
    Your Gateway is the primary eero, needed to establish your network. The eero app will guide you through setting up your gateway eero in three easy steps:

  4. First, unplug your old modem and router from power. If you have other wireless equipment connected to your modem, please unplugit as well.

  5. Place your Gateway eero device on a flat horizontal surface in an  upright orientation, with the label-side down and the power inletand Ethernet ports on the back lower edge. Connect your Gateway eero device to your modem using the Ethernet cable that came in the box. You can use any of the Ethernet ports on the back of your eero.

  6. Plug your Gateway eero device into an available power outlet, then reconnect your modem to power. Your eero device’s status light will start flashing white. For placement tips, including DO’s and DON’Ts, visit https://support.eero.com/hc/en-us/articles/207897393. Please note: you need a modem to connect to your eero Pro 6E. If your modem is built into your current router (also known as a modem-router), then you will need to connect your eero to your existing router. The first eero device should be connected to either your existing cable, fiber, DSL modem, or modem-router

  7. STEP 4: Create your eero network
    Now that you’ve got your modem and gateway eero plugged in, it’s time to create your eero network. After tapping Next, the eero app will begin to look for your new eero. You will notice that your gateway eero’s LED will begin to flash and then turn solid once found. Once your eero has been detected, you will be prompted to select a location for your eero (this is how you will identify each eero on your network).

  8. STEP 5: Add eeros to your network
    Once you’ve set up your gateway eero, your new network has been created and you can begin adding additional eeros to extend your network. You can add any eero device to your existing network. When adding eeros to your network, please keep in mind the following placement tips:

  9. Place any additional eero Model S010001 devices in an upright orientation.

  10. Place your eero device centrally. If you have a dead spot, try to place your new eero device between the dead spot and another eero device to ensure a strong connection

  11. Make sure it is Out in the open: eeros communicate best when they’re not closed in – try not to place your eero(s) inside a media console or cabinet, behind or underneath any large furniture.

  12. Place it Away from large electronics: Avoid placing your eero device in front, on top, or under any electronics or appliances as metal objects can block wifi signals.
    eeros can be added wirelessly or by Ethernet backhaul, while eero Beacons (only available in the US) can only be added wirelessly. If you need help with placement, we’ve got lots of tips at https://support.eero.com/hc/en- us/articles/207897393-Where-should-I-place-my-eeros-. It’s a great idea to familiarize yourself with these tips before getting started so that you can optimize placement throughout your home from the get-go.

  13. STEP 6: Connect devices to your eero network
    One final (and important) step is to remember to connect all of your devices to your new eero network. To do this, simply find your eero network on your device, enter the network password that you’ve created, and get connected. If you’re using the same network name (SSID) and password as your previous router, your devices should automatically reconnect. However, you may need to toggle WiFi on these devices or power cycle for them to recognize the new eero network. If you experience any trouble connecting specific devices to your new eero network, try disconnecting and reconnecting WiFi on the device. If that doesn’t work, try rebooting the device and then reconnecting to the network once it powers back on.

Replacing an existing network
To replace an existing network, open the eero App and tap the blue plus sign located on the top right corner of the home screen, then select “Add or Replace eero Devices.” It’s recommended to start with replacing non-gateway nodes first, simply follow in-app instructions replacing each node. Once all non-gateway nodes have been replaced, proceed to replace the Gateway eero. When replacing the Gateway eero, we recommended unplugging your modem from power for 2 minutes to prevent potential issues with obtaining an IP address. Additionally, make sure the Gateway eero is plugged directly into your ISP connection, do not  lace a switch between the Gateway and the Modem or ONT, even if planning to use the network in bridge mode.

E-label (Regulatory Information) Instructions
Regulatory information can be found in the eero app by selecting your eero then Device Information.
