eero Software Release Notes

We regularly provide software updates to improve your experience using our devices. eero software updates are released on a rolling basis, so your eero may not be updated immediately after a new version is released. New versions will be pushed to all customers' networks within a few weeks of public release. Updates vary in size by device model (e.g. eero Pro 6, eero Pro 6E, etc.). The update package is downloaded to each eero device individually as a compressed file, then decompressed onto the device during installation.
