“With this system, I understand you hook one into the Modem. I have two routers now, one plugged into modem and the other off the first router as wifi to it. Will I unplug both routers and use this one system or do you keep those routers going too?”

You will need to keep a Modem as the Eero system is a Wi-Fi router that extends your Wi-Fi throughout your home. The beauty of the Mesh system is now you will only have 1 SSID (Router name) in every corner of your home. The Eero is a Tri-Band system that switches automatically to the best frequency ( 2.4 or 5 Ghz ) based on conditions it detects in your home. Also, remember that the 3rd band is strictly for what is called "Back-haul". This is the method the router uses to communicate to the other Modules. Another great feature of this system is each module has 2 Ethernet ports that can be used for directly connecting other devices. Botton Line: You can now get rid of 1 of the routers that you currently have connected.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.One of the salesperson at bestbuy suggested we only use one and it worked out for us so far. We also bought the Eero for a boost in our wifi.
