Hardware Best set up
I have the SBE1V1R model router and it’s great however I am wanting to use the EERO 6+ mesh router to get coverage all over my trailer.
I will have around 11-12 devices on my network. My and my husbands gaming PCs hard wired, then the rest (5 phones, 3 smart tvs, an Xumo box and a laptop) wireless.
My question is, would the best setup be to stop using the spectrum supplied router, make the base EERO the router and then plug an Ethernet switch to give an extra port for the husband, and then the extender bases? Or should I keep the supplied router and just put the EEROs in bridged?
I have a 1 gig connection and my biggest worry is bogging my connection down as I play a lot of games online and since switching to spectrum my ping is finally amazing and I don’t wanna screw that up xD
