Abstract

A solid yellow LED on your eero router indicates it's receiving power from an unauthorized USB-C power supply that doesn't meet the required specifications. This error occurs when using a non-compatible charger instead of the included power adapter or a proper USB-C PD (Power Delivery) charger rated for 30 watts or higher.
