Our Verdict

eero Pro 6E

eero 7

The eero Pro 6E is a tri-band Wi-Fi 6E router, while the eero 7 is a dual-band Wi-Fi 7 router. Both routers have 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, but the Pro 6E has an additional 6GHz band. As such, it delivers significantly faster speeds and better range than the eero 7. That said, the eero 7 touts some Wi-Fi 7 exclusive benefits like MLO (multi-link operation), allowing compatible devices to connect to multiple bands at the same time.
