You can set up eero with Sky using Double NAT, Bridge mode, or PPPoE (Ireland only).
Note: Sky does not support Bridge mode on their modem/router because they use MER (MAC Encapsulation Routing) for authentication, which eero does not support.
How do I set up in Double NAT?
- Connect your Gateway eero to your Sky Hub
- Follow the instructions in the eero App to set up your eero network
-
Turn off your Sky Hub's Wi-Fi to avoid interference:
- Open your browser and go to 192.168.0.1
- Log in with username: admin and password: sky (or your Wi-Fi password, case sensitive)
- Go to Wireless and disable the wireless signal
How do I set up in Bridge mode?
After setting up in Double NAT, you can put your eeros in Bridge mode:
- Open the eero App, and tap Settings in the bottom-right corner
- Tap Advanced networking
- Tap DHCP & NAT
- Switch your selection from Automatic to Bridge
- Tap Save
How do I set up with PPPoE (Ireland only)?
To set up eero using PPPoE, see PPPoE Setup Instructions.
Note: PPPoE with Sky is only available in Ireland.
How do I set up with Sky Q mesh system?
The Sky Q system includes a main router and mini boxes. Avoid having multiple devices broadcasting Wi-Fi signals by disabling Wi-Fi on all Sky Q devices and connecting them via Ethernet:
- Disable Wi-Fi on your Sky Broadband router
- Disable Wi-Fi on your Sky Q and Q mini boxes (use service mode settings to default to wired connection)
- Connect your Gateway eero to your Sky Broadband router's Ethernet port
- Connect your Sky Q main box to your Gateway eero
