Topic: New Router

[Clive]

['ve upgraded  from 150 meg to 400 meg so if I suddenly vanish don't celebrate too soon as I will be trying to get back online again.

[Simon]

Good luck! 

[Clive]

I'll need it!

[Clive]

So far a total disaster.  We failed to set it up via the App so contacted the supplier who talked us through it but failed to get it to work.  I'm waiting  for a callback.   

[Simon]

What router is it?

[Clive]

It's an EERO.   They never phoned back and they've now blocked our number.  But we can use the APP now so will see if we can complete   the setup  tomorrow.  Meanwhile we've reinstalled the old router.

[Simon]

I've never heard of that brand before.  I'm assuming you're using it as part of a mesh system?  A quick look on Reddit seems to indicate that the Eero can only be set up via the app.

[Clive]

That is what we will try t0m0rrow.  To be honest I'm sorry I decided to go for it.

I'm sorry I got Windows 11.  Two days now I've been trying to sort my fonts out.  I set the font I want and it just ignores the setting.  I'm actually considering going back to Windows 10. 

[Clive]

It's all so annoying but we have to plod on.  My EERO app has been reset so we will have another go at it later  today.

[Clive]

All systems  go.  In the end it was quite simple but I haven't had much increase  in speed.  Maybe it needs time to settle down.

I love my BT router and I get above 900 meg every day. I have never had a problem with fonts in Windows 11 (yet).

[Clive]

Show off!  Turns out that I haven't been upgraded yet as my bill is still the same.  If I don't get the faster speed my the end of the month I'll contact them.
