Why reboot eero

While most customers never need to reboot their eeros, power cycling your electronics is a common troubleshooting step. Also, for your convenience, being able to reboot your eeros from the app means you won't need to unplug each individual eero.

Some common reasons to reboot your eeros:

  • You sense slow speeds on your network
  • You’re having an issue with one of your connected devices
  • A connected device is connected to the wrong eero
