I have a question. I am upgrading from fibre 150 data only and copper phone line to full fibre 500 voip.   I am currently  using Eero 6 but told nit compatible with fibre 500 and I will be sent a WIFI Hub 3  postage at my cost.......

Googling has mixed reviews as always. Is the wifi Hub 3 bettwr to use or should yhis upgrade be given eero routers of a higher model I.e. 6 Pro or something?   And is the Hub 3 going to give me a good reliable connection  upstairs and extension back of house?

Yea that's fair  enough.   If I have issues will need to get boosters from them.  If eeros don't work with the fibre 500 then  have no need for them I guess.

Thanks for help appreciated

You can't connect your phone to an eero without a separate VoIP adapter. Which the  Hub 3 has built in. It is a decent and highly specced router, reserve judgment until you have it and try it out. The eeros should not need to be returned.

@Dazzler1976 

Bear in mind that as you are switching from copper to VoIP for your voice service that you will need the Hub 3 as it has a built-in socket to connect your phone.

unfortunately each house is different. What may be better for one isn't the best for another.

 

I know some here who feel the hub 3 is better, personally the Eero suits my home better, especially as I have Echo Dots that work as extenders.

 

You can but try once your upgrade is completed to see which works best for you.

Thank you for your time to reply.  Have you any experience  with the hub 3?  Does it have good range as always had issues reaching extension  rear if house and upstairs  bedrooms. 

Many thanks

Talktalk doesn't generally issue the Eero any more, @Dazzler1976, so the Hub 3 is their latest standard router.
