Eero is a mesh networking system that brings wifi to every corner of your home. Unlike a traditional router—which can leave some rooms out of wifi’s reach—an eero system uses multiple devices that work together harmoniously to accommodate network connections in every location.
Types of Resets
On occasion, you may need to reset your eero router. There are two types of reset— a hard reset, or a soft reset. A hard reset will clear all network configurations, clear its session and logs, and remove the eero from your network. A soft reset will clear all network configurations from eero, but preserve its sessions. This keeps the eero on the network and saves its logs and advanced settings such as IP reservations and port forwarding configurations.
Before resetting an eero make sure it has been powered on for at least 45 seconds.
