Upgrade to a modern mesh router system

If your router is more than 4-5 years old, replacing it with a modern mesh system like Google Nest WiFi Pro, Eero Pro, or TP-Link Deco improves both security and coverage. These systems support WPA3, automatic firmware updates, and include built-in security features like threat detection.

Why It Works

Older routers may lack WPA3, have unpatched vulnerabilities, and receive no further updates. Modern mesh systems are designed with security as a default, not an afterthought, and provide consistent coverage throughout your home.

Tips

• Mesh systems typically cost $150-400 depending on coverage area and features
• Eero Plus ($10/mo) adds ad blocking, VPN, and advanced threat protection
• Most mesh systems have intuitive apps for managing devices and security settings
• A strong router with WPA3 is a better security investment than most antivirus software
