Frequently Asked Questions

Why is eero Plus blocking websites I need for work?
eero Plus uses automated categorization that sometimes misclassifies legitimate business websites. Add specific work-related sites to your allowlist or create a separate 'Work' profile with less restrictive filtering for professional devices.
How long does it take for allowlist changes to take effect?
Allowlist changes typically take 1-2 minutes to propagate across your eero network. If changes don't take effect immediately, try clearing your browser cache or restarting the affected device.
Can I temporarily disable all content filtering?
Yes, you can pause Family Profiles for a specific time period by selecting the profile and tapping 'Pause.' This temporarily disables all content filtering for that profile until you manually resume it or the pause timer expires.
Will adding sites to the allowlist affect other Family Profiles?
No, allowlist entries are specific to each Family Profile. Adding a site to one profile's allowlist won't affect the filtering rules of other profiles on your network.
What should I do if the eero app won't let me modify the allowlist?
Ensure you're logged in with admin credentials and have an active eero Plus subscription. If you still can't modify settings, try force-closing the app, restarting it, or logging out and back in again.
