I moved to a new house, taking my existing Eero setup, and experience connection dropouts.<\/p>\n

I had Virgin Broadband and the old house, and the new house, and assumed I would be just plug and play.<\/p>\n

I tried setting the Eero system in bridge mode, which didn’t solve the problem entirely, but did help.<\/p>\n

The solution in the end was to set the Eero system to use the Manual IP setting, so that’s its IP range was 10.0.0.x.<\/p>\n

This left the Virgin router to use the 192.168.0.x range.<\/p>\n

I think the problem was IP address collison.<\/p>\n

This also left me able to connect directly to the Virgin router Wifi if I need too (for high speed downloads), as the Eero didn’t give the full speed of the Virgin Router.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
