My understanding is Cake was used for the 1st and 2nd generation, but all the Wi-Fi 6 models of eero (6, 6+, Pro 6, Pro 6E) use fq_codel. It’s optional, off by default, and hidden under eero labs as a beta feature under the name “optimize f

I did see occasional spikes to the range, 1500-1600 Mbps, and I've seen that with the few other 6 GHz APs I've tested. The eero's performance on the top end with a very wide channel was inconsistent though. Over longer durati

That hasn't been my experience with the U6-Pro and U6-Mesh. Are you running 80 MHz channels? Do you have a lot of 5 GHz interference around you? I'm typically seeing 500-800 Mbps on the top end, from close range, with those APs. T

In my experience, very well. I only tested Google Wi-Fi for a few weeks, but I was unimpressed with it overall. eero does a good job at adjusting things behind the scene. It does an RF scan nightly, and adjusts channels and works around int

Fair point. Apple definitely should be better about designing for repairs and upgrades. They have been going the wrong way on that for years now. I like what Microsoft did with their latest Surface Laptop. We should be making devices more r
