A Wi-Fi 6E class starts with AXE, also when the maker writes AX, so eero's AX5400 is AXE5400. The class is not the model number, so GL.iNet's GL-AXT1800 is AX1800.

Band steering over only some of the bands, such as 2.4 and 5 GHz on a tri-band router, counts. AFC is Automated Frequency Coordination, which allows standard power on 6 GHz. Support that needs a later firmware counts, and the firmware goes in the source note.

Network featuresiFeatures the maker lists that work without a paid subscription. An IoT network is a separate network for smart home devices. Dual WAN uses a second internet connection as a backup or to share the load. Only features the maker clearly says are free. Parental controls counts when a free feature pauses or schedules internet access per person or device, such as eero Profiles, even when content filters need a subscription. When the maker's pages contradict each other, leave the feature out.

Security serviceiThe maker's built-in security service by name, e.g. AiProtection Pro, HomeShield, NETGEAR Armor or eero Plus.

eero Plus12Maker product pageeero.com/support/articles/what-is-eero-plusRead 15 October 2026eero Plus (formerly eero Secure) is the premium security and privacy service. It was named eero Secure at the 2020 launch.

CyberSecure1Maker product pagestore.ui.com/us/en/products/ux7Read 15 October 2026The store sells Enhanced Cyber Security (CyberSecure, powered by Proofpoint) as an add-on, billed yearly. The spec page lists 20,000+ IDS/IPS signatures with CyberSecure.

Security service costiWhat the service costs after any free trial. Basic free means the basic features are free and the full set needs a subscription. When the free and paid tiers share one name, such as HomeShield, it is basic free. NETGEAR Armor has no free tier after its trial, so it is paid. When the paid tier is a separate add-on, such as eero Plus, it is paid.

Paid12Maker product pageeero.com/support/articles/what-is-eero-plusRead 15 October 2026eero Plus features are exclusive to the subscription and are grayed out in the app without it.

Paid1Maker product pagestore.ui.com/us/en/products/ux7Read 15 October 2026CyberSecure is a separate add-on at 99 USD per unit and year. The basic IDS/IPS in the gateway is free. Stored as paid because the paid tier is a separate add-on, as for the UDR7 entry.
