Setup Issues
One of the biggest frustrations with a traditional router has to be the confusing
and complex setup process, so at eero we’ve taken a different approach: make
the entire setup experience as quick and easy as possible.
Our app will walk customers through the process, but here is a list of common
issues they may encounter during setup.
●Gateway Setup Issues
●Leaf node: Error message “eero not found”
●Leaf node: Error message “Hmm, let’s try moving it”

Gateway Setup Issues

2. Use one ethernet cable to connect an eero to the modem / MRC
3. Power on both the eero and the modem
4. Once both devices are fully booted, open the eero app and begin setup

Gateway Setup Issues
If you are still unable to create a network after following the previous troubleshooting steps,
please make sure that:
1. Ensure the LAN cable between the eero and the modem / MRC isn’t frayed, poorly
terminated, or has questionable integrity, and that the eero is properly connected to
the modem (one ethernet cable to a designated LAN port)
2. Confirm active internet connection at the modem or upstream router - connect a client
device like a laptop or desktop to the modem and see if the internet is reachable.
3. Check if the user's ISP requires a Static IP. If so, follow these instructions to complete
setup

Leaf Node Issues
The most common issues that arise when setting up leaf nodes are “No eero device found” and
“Hmm, let’s try moving it.” These issues are typically attributed to a bluetooth connectivity issue,
or placement of the leaf nodes. This public-facing help center article addresses these issues.
1. Ensure bluetooth is enabled on the smartphone/tablet.
2. Attempt to set up using a different smartphone/tablet.
3. Have the user attempt to add the eero in-app by entering in the serial number
4. Attempt to add the eero manually via RNM.
5. Perform hard reset on eero and try again.
a. To perform a hard reset, hold the reset button down for 20 seconds or until the LED
is flashing red
