The eero 6+ is the cheapest way on this list to fix dead zones in a home with gigabit or slower internet. eero's store describes it as its most affordable gigabit router and says a router plus two extenders covers up to 4,500 sq. ft., with each extender adding up to 1,500 sq. ft. It is built for plans up to 1 Gbps, supports 250+ devices and reaches wireless speeds up to 940 Mbps. On sale, a 1-pack was $94.99, a 2-pack $159.99 and a 3-pack $199.99, down from $139.99, $239.99 and $299.99. The limits are clear in eero's FAQ: the extenders have no Ethernet ports and cannot connect directly to the modem, and the system is Wi-Fi 6 rather than Wi-Fi 7. For apartments and small to mid-size houses on a sub-gigabit plan, those limits rarely matter. We compared documented features and published prices only.
