1. Introduction

While many routers have a multitude of different lights that all mean something different, eero devices simplify things by only having one light. The light on your eero devices is designed to change colors and sometimes flash to give you a very clear and easy-to-understand status of both your network and that individual device at-a-glance. This guide will help you understand what each status light color means.
