Hey everyone,

A quick heads-up that v1.6.0 of the unofficial, open-source eero Dashboard & Management Suite is now officially live on Docker Hub and GitHub.

(Disclaimer: This is an independent, community-driven homelab tool and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Amazon/eero).

Key Highlights in v1.6.0:

• 100% Offline-First Architecture: Bundled all vendor dependencies (Tailwind, Alpine, Chart.js, Lucide) and web fonts locally with PWA caching, ensuring the dashboard renders and functions on your LAN during WAN/ISP outages.
• Reverse IPv6 ULA Discovery: Resolved local DNS visibility gaps for devices querying AdGuard Home or Pi-hole over ULA addresses via reverse ingestion and NDP probing, linking queries back to eero device hostnames.
• Local Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Added multi-user management with granular view/action permissions, keeping your master eero 2FA session protected.
• Homelab Integrations: Native MQTT auto-discovery for Home Assistant and a /metrics Prometheus endpoint with an included 13-panel Grafana template.
• Telemetry & Reliability Hardening: Resolved SQLite write-lock contention under heavy polling, added an in-app live log console, and introduced relative "First Seen / Recently Joined" indicators.

A huge thank you to everyone in the homelab community who tested the release candidate and submitted feedback!

I got an eero max 7 last week and I use it in bridged mode. My wired router runs OpenWrt where the internet comes in which is a poor place for wifi. Running in bridge lets me put the eero in a central location.

I’ve been checking the channels it uses and it‘s on 1, 36, and 85 which I believe are the defaults. Has anyone running in bridge seen channel changes? I know there’s patch notes a few years old saying it was added but it’s really strange the channels haven’t changed. There are a lot of 5ghz routers near me as I live in an apartment so there’s no way the defaults are the most optimal

Why are these devices so fragile?
Why is the customer’s visibility into these devices so limited?
Why are they in a constant need of an update?
I am done!!

Could someone help me understand eeros I have had for the past 3 days problems with my internet I called my isp they told me it was my eero and sent me a new that arrived today but on the first day my internet came back after I kept plugging and unplugging it. Yesterday it worked completely just fine. Today it went completely out after my roommate’s home phone was answered and the old eero went sold red line. I got my new eero and called my ISP and had them send the data to make the eero able to be used on there service but it went right back to sold red after the flashing blue line I’m at a loss on how to fix it. My isp has no outages they are saying it’s possibly do to the signal going into my modem is going in and out but the modem is showing it’s getting all the data. I need the internet for work so any help would be appreciated thank you all ahead of time. O I also can’t get into the eero app because it’s saying I need to set up the new on what has already happened.

I apologize if this is in the wrong place, but I was hoping someone might know the answer to this.

I have cox/spectrum internet service, but I use eeros around my house. Every night, like clock work, I lose signal on every eero for 10-15 seconds. I do not lose signal on the cox/spectrum router. It is only the eeros. It’s usually anywhere between 6-8pm. It’s becoming frustrating, as I enjoy to game and watch shows. It’s just aggravating enough to kick me off what I’m watching or out of a game, and I don’t have a fix.

Cox/Spectrum insists it is not on their end, and eero support says it isn’t on their end…. I am very tech savvy, but unfortunately not when it comes to internet equipment. And frankly, I am at a loss.

My wife recently transitioned to working from home, and her company mandates a wired connection. I’m also wired into the router, and I need it for work (and gaming🫣). The issue is that there’s only one Ethernet port and I’d prefer not to slow down my speeds. Could I use a network switch or splitter to extend the available ports? I do have another router with multiple ports, but I’ve already invested in Eero extenders and the like.

UPDATED: I got home and she just didn’t understand how to set up and access her work network. No hardwire necessary.

I have a 3 satellite Eero Pro 6 setup. I want to upgrade some of my wifi cameras to POE cameras.

If I install one of the Eero satellites in the garage, what do I need to connect a POE camera to it? I get confused with the switch and injector discussion. Running ethernet cable shouln't be a problem. I have attic and crawlspace access.

Is upgrading my system to a newer Eero mesh setup with built-in POE a better idea?

I’ve been trying to update to 7.17.1 and it consistently falls to download and install. No error other than a generic “there was a problem.”
