The eero 7 is positioned as eero’s most affordable Wi-Fi 7 router, and on paper it looks like a strong “easy upgrade” if you want modern performance without paying top-tier prices.

Performance & future-proofing: It supports internet plans up to 2.5 Gbps, has two auto-sensing 2.5 GbE ports, and advertises wireless speeds up to 1.8 Gbps—which is plenty for streaming, gaming, remote work, and smart home traffic in most households.

Coverage & reliability: Where eero tends to shine is stability. The system is built to reduce dead spots and interruptions, and a 3-pack is rated to cover up to 6,000 sq. ft. and support 120+ devices, making it a good fit for larger homes or families with lots of connected gear.

Wi-Fi 7 features + eero software: Wi-Fi 7 features like Multi-Link Operation (MLO) can help with better responsiveness and reliability—especially as more Wi-Fi 7 devices enter your home. On top of that, eero’s TrueMesh, TrueRoam, and TrueChannel software is designed to automatically optimize routing and channels, which is ideal if you don’t want to constantly tweak settings.

Compatibility: Another big plus is that it’s backward compatible with older eero devices and works with eero Built-in on select Amazon Echo devices, which can make expanding coverage easier over time.

Bottom line: If you want a simple, reliable Wi-Fi 7 mesh upgrade with 2.5 GbE ports, strong coverage, and minimal hassle, the eero 7 looks like a practical pick—especially for homes that struggle with dead zones or have lots of devices online at once.
