• After pressing next in the eero app, it will begin to look for your eero 6+. The router will begin to flash blue and then present a solid blue light once detected.
• Select a location for your eero 6+ in the app and then set your own network name and network password; this is how other devices will join your network. Click next to complete set up.

Step 5: Connect an eero 6+ device to expand your network

When adding your eero device to your network, please keep in mind the following placement tips:

• If you have a dead spot, try to place your new eero device between the dead spot and another eero device to ensure a strong connection.
• Try not to place your eero device inside a media console or cabinet, behind or underneath any large furniture.
• Avoid placing your eero 6+ device in front, on top of, or under any electronics or appliances, as metal objects can block Wi-Fi signals.

Now that your eero network is set up, you're free to do all the things you love online like stream music, read, and play video games!
