Amazon-owned Eero is updating its mainline mesh routers with Wi-Fi 7 options in the new Eero 7 and Eero Pro 7 that are available for preorder now ahead of their launch on February 26th. Pricing for the Eero 7 and Eero Pro 7 ranges from $169.99 and $299.99 for single routers to $349.99 and $699.99 for three-packs, respectively.
Eero says these routers can push wireless throughput of up to 1.8Gbps (Eero 7) and 3.9Gbps (Eero Pro 7) — if true, that’s more than enough for most peoples’ hardwired internet service. Like their Wi-Fi 6 and 6E predecessors, the two mesh systems are mainly distinguished from each other by the number of bands they have and the throughput of their ethernet ports. The cheaper Eero 7 is a dual-band router (2.4GHz and 5GHz) with two 2.5Gbps, self-configuring ethernet ports, while the Pro 7 adds a 6GHz band and dual 5Gbps ethernet ports.

Those figures aren’t as impressive as the numbers Eero claims for its first Wi-Fi 7 router, the Eero Max 7, but the new routers bring Wi-Fi 7-exclusive features that can still benefit you even if you don’t have Wi-Fi 7 devices, and at a much lower price than the Max 7’s almost $1,360 three-pack price. Those features promise to improve the connection between wireless routers by combining multiple bands into one for higher throughput and more stability (if one is congested or goes down, it’s still using the other one), and offering 320MHz channel bandwidth on the 6GHz band, or double the 160MHz that was the maximum going back to Wi-Fi 5.
Eero VP of software engineering Rowan Chakoumakos told The Verge in a briefing that both the Pro model and standard Eero 7 can push up to a 240MHz signal on the 5GHz band, something else that’s only supported in Wi-Fi 7. Basically, the wireless signal going to an Eero 7 or Pro 7 mesh router should have more throughput than with older Eero systems, to the benefit of even your older, non-Wi-Fi 7 smartphone, game console, or laptop. It’ll also be a cheaper option if you’ve considered the Eero Outdoor 7 but couldn’t bring yourself to get the pricey Eero Max 7 to integrate it with.
Like their predecessors, the new Wi-Fi 7 routers work as smart home hubs for Amazon’s Alexa ecosystem, with Matter support, a Zigbee radio, and the ability to act as Thread Border Routers. They’re also backward compatible with all of Eero’s 10 years’ worth of routers and work with Amazon smart speaker devices like Echo Dots with Eero mesh extender capability and all older Wi-Fi standards.
The release of these new routers brings Eero’s Wi-Fi 7 options up to four, including the outdoor Wi-Fi 7 router it announced in October. The company says it will keep selling the Eero 6, 6 Plus, and Pro 6E, each of which got a recent price drop that knocked around $20 off of prices that now range between $89.99 for a single Eero 6 all the way up to $549.99 for a three-pack of the Eero Pro 6E.
