Amazon announced eero Max 7, its first Wi-Fi 7 mesh system and the fastest, most powerful eero yet. eero Max 7 combines the company's patented TrueMesh networking technology with the latest Wi-Fi 7 standard to dramatically increase speeds, avoid interference from neighboring networks, and improve mesh latency-and with 10 Gigabit Ethernet, it's now possible to download a 4K movie in 10 seconds or a 50 gigabyte video game in less than a minute.

"Connectivity is core to our everyday lives—we stream movies and TV, take video calls for work, play online games with our friends, and use an ever increasing number of connected devices," said Nick Weaver, co-founder and CEO of eero. "With tens of millions of eero devices around the world, we know customers notice even a millisecond delay when streaming a movie or gaming, want reliable connectivity in every corner of the home, and always look for faster speeds. eero Max 7 is the culmination of everything we've learned—this is an entirely new class of eero, built without compromise."




A New Class of eero
As eero's fastest tri-band mesh wifi system, eero Max 7 supports the 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz radio bands, and delivers wireless speeds up to 4.3 Gbps and wired speeds up to 9.4 Gbps. With two 10 and two 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports, it can support multiple wired devices and enable customers to take advantage of internet plans up to 10 Gbps.eero Max 7 can deliver up to twice the wireless throughput of eero Pro 6E at a greater range-with a one-pack providing 2,500 square feet of coverage and a three-pack providing up to 7,500 square feet of coverage. Like all eero mesh wifi systems, eero Max 7 uses the company's patented TrueMesh technology to dynamically route data through the fastest path in the network, limiting interference, and ensuring customers have a fast, reliable internet experience in every room. It also features an all-new form factor with an advanced passive thermal design, delivering new levels of range and performance without requiring a fan.

eero Max 7 makes it easy to enjoy applications that move large amounts of data across the internet or local network and require little to no latency-such as augmented and virtual reality, 4K and 8K video streaming, and gaming. It improves connectivity overall for day-to-day activities by reducing congestion for devices on the network, and brings reliable connectivity to business networks with many connected devices and concurrent voice and video calls. It's the foundation for smart home connectivity, supporting over 200 connected devices and featuring Matter support, the ability to act as a Thread Border Router, and a built-in Zigbee smart home hub.

Additional Features and Benefits
eero Max 7 will work with all major internet service provider plans and, like all eeros, has several features to deliver a great connectivity experience:
  • Easy to Set Up and Manage: Use the eero app to set up eero Max 7 in minutes, manage the network, pause the internet, share network details with friends or guests, and much more.
  • Backward Compatible: Similar to our other devices, eero Max 7 is backward compatible with previous generations of eero devices, making it easy to expand or upgrade an eero network as wifi needs evolve.
  • TrueMesh: All eero mesh wifi systems use the company's patented TrueMesh networking technology to dynamically route data through the fastest path in the network, limiting interference and helping ensure customers have a fast, reliable internet experience. TrueMesh does this by automatically choosing the fastest path for network traffic based on a variety of factors like a network's layout, interference from neighboring networks, and connected devices.
  • Safe and Secure Wifi: eero is constantly working to help keep networks safe and secure. Automatic software updates provide the latest security patches, bug fixes, and feature upgrades.
  • Connectivity for the Smart Home: eero Max 7 supports Matter by enabling customers to set up select Matter-enabled devices with Alexa, acts as a Thread Border Router, and features a built-in Zigbee smart home hub to connect compatible smart home devices on a customer's network with Alexa.
  • eero Plus: Subscribers to the eero Plus service can add advanced online security features and parental controls; take advantage of eero Internet Backup during an outage; and use three top-rated security apps: 1Password for password management, Malwarebytes for malware protection, and Guardian for VPN access.
  • Free Customer Support: Our expert wifi troubleshooting team is ready to help by phone or email seven days per week.

Pricing and Availability
eero Max 7 will be available soon for $599.99 (one-pack), $1,149.99 (two-pack), and $1,699.99 (three-pack) through eero.com, Amazon.com, leading retailers like Best Buy, and internet service providers like Frontier and Metronet in the US, UK, Canada, Italy, France, Germany, and Spain.

These devices are getting pretty serious . Over $1k for a simple mesh setup sounds like crazy talk
You do at least get decent speeds on the wired side finally, no more 1 Gbps ports.
Still a lot cheaper than Netgear.

Price is funny compared to Tplink B85 which is miles ahead in terms of Wifi speed and configurability. It even has SFP port, so you can ditch the ONT.

I don't think i'd ever be able to thrust an amazon made router
I've never quite understood why people buy Amazon anything to be honest. But I guess these people have 'nothing to hide' ;)

In my home... never, that's for sure. Nothing communicating, ever, from any big corporate entity that's also aspiring to control value chains. I love myself a 'dumb' home, where a light switch just has on/off and you hit it for the desired effect. If I don't have full control over the device... it ain't coming in.

If you're smart, you avoid TP-Link products at all cost, they issue 3-4 firmware updates and then create a new hardware revision and drop the old revision like a hot turd.

The Fire TV sticks are actually really decent and my SO loves her Kindle. I got her old one and it's not bad, but both are ad free. Same goes for the international version of the Fire TV sticks.

^^THIS^^

I swore off toilet paper's stuff years ago, after having multiple devices fail, crash & burn within 6-9 months and gettin absolutely ZERO help from them with an RMA...

And I agree with Vayra86, there isn't now, and neva will be, any of da Zonner's (or anyone else's) control freak, snooper/sniffer/listener items in my house, period !

Strangely enough, I think I trust AWS but distrust Amazon the store (which seems to be getting worse-and-worse over the years).

Amazon needs to clean house with its store. So many no-name brands that are likely just rebranded Alibaba crap.
