Banish buffering for good. (Photo: Amazon)
If your Wi-Fi is slow and laggy — and doesn’t cover every room in your home, we feel for you. Sometimes the router that came from the cable company just doesn't cut it. Especially if you have a two-story home. This is super frustrating, whether you're working from home or just watching / gaming / communicating from there. The thing is, there's a simple fix.
An eero mesh router, which eliminates dead zones, is the answer. And thanks to this year's Prime Day deals, you can get a great one for a whopping 35% off. This year's deals are even better than usual. Why? Because the retail industry has a glut of merchandise. And when stores want to move product, they drop prices. Luckily we're the ones who benefit!

The Amazon Eero Pro 6 gives you up to 2,000 square feet of internet coverage, supporting WiFi speeds of up to a gigabit. This device also doubles as a Zigbee smart home hub, so you can connect and control compatible devices on your network with Alexa.
"The speed difference is transformative," said a five-star fan. "For example, the lag that used to be part of navigating apps on our TV and calling up shows/movies has simply vanished, even though the TV does not have WiFi 6."
WiFi 6 supports faster speeds and over 75 connected devices on one system (though you'd be hard pressed to reach that limit). If you need to expand your system, this unit is compatible with other eero hardware to support your needs as they evolve.
One happy customer reports: "What was initially a very good product has become a great product with robust and frequent software upgrades."
Another five-star fan put it to the test: "I ran a speed test near the new router and got the same approximate 200 Mbps, but when I went to the furthest spot on my back bedroom without a Beacon, I got about 150 Mbps. The improvement in performance is astounding, and I think it will be a life-changer for those of us with multiple kids at home with constant video calls. [Before,] I made sure that I wasn't watching any videos on my laptop while the kids were on their calls, because invariably, one of them would shout that their video was glitching. My network simply couldn't handle three devices using that much bandwidth. But now with the Pro 6 mesh's ability to handle more devices, plus the astounding extra coverage, my entire apartment is blanketed in blazing fast wifi."
What are you waiting for? Time to banish buffering for good.

Our top pick for Prime Day:
“I fully believe this year’s Prime Day will once again outdo last year's, and I would legitimately be surprised if Amazon doesn't report record-breaking numbers again,” she told Yahoo Life. “Even with inflation being a concern, there are going to be deals that are too good for shoppers to pass up.” With that good news, let's get shopping!
