View allAs for naming your network the same as your old one, I bet you had a typo or something. WHen I switched, 99% of my IoT things transitioned smoothly. Even a 7+ year old IP cameras I didn't need to reconfigure. Or blame crappy IoT design. I've tried to maintain homekit compatible devices in my smart home and those are usually better designed since apple is more picky when handing out those homekit compatible logos.
seems like the speeds inside the house have increased slightly in the house but the actual range seems worse than the rogers modem. I no longer get full strength in the garage, on the front porch or on the back deck by the pool. I did before, just the speeds weren't great. am I doing something wrong? lol
so much for the easy setup naming the network the same. I had to reset and rediscover all of my wifi switches and plugs, garage door openers and ring doorbell. what was going to be a 10 - 15 min task yesterday morning became a 3 hour adventure.
So spend your money on gamer routers with 8 giant antennas and download at maybe 10-20% faster than the rest of us while dealing with deadzones in your home.
As for whether “AC1200” can’t handle “dozens” of devices, I’m running great with 30+ Wifi clients.

The Cupcake Eero's performed better and had less deadzones than my "AC2400" asus AC87u router as well as my "AC1900" linksys ea6900 router.
- Pickup an Eero 5 and use it as my main WiFi network
- Use my current router's 2.4 ghz SSID for IoT devices and the 5ghz SSID for a guest network
I'm assuming that in order to do this I'd need to connect my current router and the Eero to my DSL modem/router.
Plume superpods have better antenna strength but worse throughput. Orbi is fast but buggy and real life performance does not live up to reviews.

Amazon Prime Day 2021 - not confirmed rumor says June -- POSTPONED IN CANADA DUE TO HEALTH REASONS
IMO, no. if you have issues with wifi now and are on a budget, these eero 5 units are great.
I recently upgraded from 3x cupcake eeros (2 wired, 1 wireless) to 3x eero 5 pros and i think because I don't have a tonne of high bandwidth clients (maybe 2 phones, 1 tablet, 2-3 laptops), I've noticed ZERO improvement day to day WFH with the Pros vs. the cupcakes. I still have 30+ wireless devices (IoT) chugging along with no issues.
Would I miss the extra 10-20% speed bump with eero 6 from the current speed I currently get with my wifi 6 devices? NOPE
Do I notice any difference in terms of speeds or latency on the pros vs cupcakes? NOPE
Do I notice the additional 150mbps I now get from my 1 wireless node? NOPE (i only notice when I'm doing iPerf tests)
Do I notice any difference in coverage around the house? NOPE (it was already great with the cupcakes)
Did I waste money upgrading to the pros? Yeah probably.
use that information as you will...
Un-expire a thread?
Single routers need to crank their transmission strength to achieve the same coverage which is not ideal and may still have deadzones. At least I did, even with 2x routers setup as AP.
30-45 ft is the official stance. If you can put them in line of sight or without obstruction/enclosure, that’s best. Also don’t “stack” nodes on top of each other(they have a reception “deadzone” directly underneath)
With that said, I'm pleasantly surprised by the performance of this system. I was able to pull in over 400 mbps from my Gateway eero and I now get three bars from anywhere around the house.
Does a single router has the range to compete with mesh system?

But to answer the second half of your question, the eero is definitely a plug & play & set it & forget it type of solution. Boils down to it, you do the initial setup with the first eero as your gateway eero, then once that's up and running, you plug in the subsequent eeros and run through a quick setup on the eero app on your phone and they will find each other and set everything up automatically. It's pretty simple.
