Our Verdict
eero Pro 6E
eero 6
The eero Pro 6E is a better router than the eero 6. The former is a tri-band Wi-Fi 6E router with 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz bands, while the latter is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router that lacks a 6GHz band. They're both designed for use in mesh networks with multiple access points. Each router has two Ethernet ports, but the 6E has a 2.5Gbps port and a 1Gbps port, while the 6 has two 1Gbps ports. The 6E has better range and faster top speeds than the 6.
