LEHI, Utah–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#5g—WeLink, a rapidly-growing, next-generation broadband provider, announced a new collaboration with eero, an Amazon company, today. Together, WeLink and eero are poised to meet the demand for high-speed internet through expanded broadband access and whole-home connectivity. WeLink leverages patented, 5G mmWave technology and vertically-integrated services to extend wireless-fiber broadband to homes. eero Pro 6, powered by WeLink, unlocks the connected home with the power of tri-band Wi-Fi® 6 and eero’s intelligent-mesh wifi technology. eero Secure provides content filter settings, insights, and advanced online security.

“WeLink is dedicated to bridging the digital divide and expanding fair and open internet access to people across America. Our unique, fixed-wireless broadband solution combined with eero Pro 6 provides homeowners with a better choice when it comes to their home internet,” said Kevin Ross, CEO of WeLink. “We’re living through a completely unprecedented era in whole-home connectivity, with more people streaming, video conferencing, doing work from home, and attending school remotely than ever before. That’s why WeLink is teaming with eero and combining advanced wireless access with whole-home connectivity.”

WeLink works with local communities to develop high-speed, wireless infrastructure that extends the reach of fiber to homes. Using the latest advances in 5G millimeter wave (mmWave) technology, 802.11ay silicon, and modern network routing approaches such as Open/R, WeLink can deliver fast and affordable internet that has not been achievable using legacy wireless solutions. This mmWave network architecture relies on intelligent mesh routing. Each customer node acts as a relay and an access node, amplifying the network footprint with very few fiber points of presence (PoPs) required. As a result, WeLink wireless technology is ten times faster to deploy and less expensive than traditional fiber, providing affordable, high-speed broadband access for homes.

eero Pro 6 complements WeLink wireless technology with the power of Wi-Fi® 6 to enhance whole-home connectivity. As the fastest, most powerful eero router to date, eero Pro 6 uses an intelligent, mesh-wifi system that amplifies wireless connectivity throughout the home. Where traditional wifi systems use boosters to amplify a signal, eero Pro 6 devices are placed around the home and work together to create a unified, wide-ranging signal to help reduce dead zones. Users can link their Amazon account to enable Amazon Frustration-Free Setup and Zigbee smart home hub, making it easy to connect and control compatible Zigbee devices across the home. All of this helps enhance network capacity and efficiency beyond traditional routers and Wi-Fi 5 technology, enabling consumers to connect more than 75 different devices while covering up to 2,000 square feet.
