Yes, a modem or ONT is needed. An eero is not a modem. The eero requires one eero hardwired to an internet source via an ethernet cable. This will be the primary/gateway eero and it will create a wifi network. The other eero will connect to the gateway eero (wired or wirelessly) and will broadcast the same wifi network.

The first eero plugs into your existing cable or DSL modem. If you have a combination modem/router, you’ll be using that as a modem and disabling the routing function by putting it in bridge mode. I hope this information helps, have a great day!
