Switching router

Namisaria — Sat, 23 Dec 2023 22:35:59 GMT

Hi,

Is there any chance to get another router? Currently we have eero, but it only has one VLAN slot, and I need one with at least two, to be able to connect my PC and my TV via VLAN, as the TV model I have is not compatible with the router and can't use it via WiFi.

Thank you.

By VLAN I assume that you mean LAN, they are not the same. The normal way to increase the number of LAN ports on the Eero is via a small gigabit switch from somewhere like Amazon. Make sure it's gigabit (1000Mbps) and not the older 100Mbps) models.

Morning,

How are you getting on?

Need to connect multiple devices to a wired network? Investing in a network switch will allow you to connect several devices to your router via a wired connection, ensuring that every device is provided a seamless high-speed connection. You can use any network switch you like, but we’d recommend a gigabit network switch, which can handle speeds of up to 1000 Mbps.

Thanks
