If you own its Wi-Fi mesh system for your home or small business, it\u2019s important to know how to reset Eero. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wi-Fi Mesh systems are superior to Wi-Fi extenders<\/a> for several reasons. However, this does not mean that these systems are completely infallible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They can run into errors or malfunctions. This can occur due to a corrupt firmware update, misconfigurations or bugs from a bad bootup. Regardless of the issue, your first go-to for troubleshooting is resetting your Eero device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The following guide will show you the various ways you can do this. Without further adieu\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n As with most network and computing devices, you can either perform a hard or soft reset on your eero. Both types rely on the reset button. As such, you must first find where your device\u2019s reset button is located. The following is a list of the most common eero devices and the location of their reset buttons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you turn your Eero Gen 1 Wi-Fi router around, you\u2019ll notice a collection of ports and inputs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The reset button is the first widget from the left side of the router. It\u2019s a small black button that sits next to the 12v Power Adaptor input.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Eero Pro\u2019s button is a lot easier to find than the Gen 1\u2019s. Once again, you can find it on the back of the unit, on the right side of the WAN\/LAN Gigabit Ethernet Ports<\/a>. It\u2019s a small rectangular button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also reset your Eero Beacon. The reset button is on the right side of your front-facing Beacon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can find the Eero Gen 2\u2019s reset button underneath it. It\u2019s a rounded-corner rectangular-shaped button which you can find just beneath the barcode. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also find the reset buttons for the Eero 6, Eero Pro 6, eero Pro 6E, and Eero 6+ in similar positions (respectively).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The eero PoE 6 tends to be slightly larger than the previous devices on the list, which makes it slightly harder to locate the reset button. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Nevertheless, you can find it underneath the unit. It should be on the right-hand side, just below the \u201ceero\u201d logo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Because the eero PoE Gateway is a completely black decoder-like unit, finding the reset button can be a bit trickier. It doesn\u2019t help that it\u2019s almost pin-sized. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Nevertheless, users can find the reset button on the right of the USB-C<\/a> power adapter port just below the LED indicator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Ring Alarm Pro\u2019s collection of ports and inputs can be found behind it, just beneath its vents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Once again, the reset button is the smallest of the bunch. It can be found on the far right, between the pairing button and the Wi-Fi indicator.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFinding The Reset Button<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
