Just purchased a new construction home (also in 1st-year of networking courses) that had this installed and set-up as an ‘upgrade’. Currently have Cat 5e connections throughout the home I was looking to upgrade. Could anyone share info or recommendations about how this is currently set-up? Have an incoming Fiber connection of 2Gigs but only seeing ~800-900mbps max. Wired to 3 Eero Pro 6E.

    Is the fiber service connected to the white box in the cabinet or coming in somewhere else? I don’t see an Ethernet cable connected to the white box.

    You need to add an unmanaged Ethernet switch in to the cabinet and connect all the blue RJ45 terminated cables to the switch ports. Then connect one of the main router’s LAN ports to the switch or to a wall outlet, which will distribute the signal to the other wall outlets. Then you can connect the other Eero devices to wall outlets where Wifi is weak.
