Unboxing and Preparing Your Eero Devices
Start by unboxing your Eero devices. Typically, a starter kit includes one or more Eero units and power adapters. Before proceeding, ensure you have a stable internet connection from your modem and a compatible smartphone or tablet with the Eero app installed.

Connecting Your Eero to the Modem
Connect the primary Eero device to your modem using an Ethernet cable. Plug the Eero into a power outlet. Open the Eero app, and it will detect the new device automatically. Follow the prompts to name your network and set a secure password.
Adding Additional Eero Units
