Can I turn off "Broadcast SSID" with this unit. Thanks null

Hello, MaryBeth. Great question! No, while hiding your SSID may be effective in stopping some users from finding and attempting to access your home network, it is actually less effective than other wireless security protocols like WEP. If the goal is to secure your wireless network, the good news is that the eero router functionality only supports WPA2 PSK AES network security. This is the most secure standard currently available. Here is an article with more information regarding this: https://support.eero.com/hc/en-us/articles/214588166-Why-can-t-I-hide-my-network-SSID-with-eero-.
