During an unplanned internet outage there are 3 things you can do to stay connected to the internet

  1. Hotspotting from your mobile device – During an internet outage your mobile internet connection should be unaffected allowing you to use your mobiles hotspot feature as an internet backup. You can share your mobile data plan with other devices e.g., laptop by following the steps in our FAQ.

  2. Visit a public space that offers free Wi-Fi – Public spaces such as cafes and libraries often provide free Wi-Fi to the public which you can utilise (if open) and a good option if you dont have enough mobile data.

  3. Use eero internet backup – If you have already set up eero Secures internet backup feature, your eero network will automatically switch to the backup source and broadcast Wi-Fi throughout your home so your connected devices stay online. Note: If you didnt set up eero internet backup already then you wont be able to during the outage

We will notify you via email and on social when internet services in affected areas have been restored
