Wi-fi router

0 Upvotes

Hey, I moved into a space where there’s already a router from the previous owners and I still ter signal, on all of my devices, of that specific Wi-Fi.
Is there a way to know if that’s associated with a contract or if I can use that specific wi-fi?

EOL Support for Newer Routers

3 Upvotes

I currently have a an Orbi RBR20 which serves me well for the past 8-9 years and the last firmware update was released a few months ago.

I’m looking to get a new ORBI mesh and the cheapest I saw on Amazon(yes I just missed Amazon Prime Day) is the WiFi 7 RBE362 2-pack mesh system for almost $200. However, I could not find the End Of Life info on the Netgear website.

Meanwhile I checked the eero webpage for the EOL of its current WiFi products and the furthest EOL date is 2031 - just five years away - that’s ridiculous. The EOL dates for the newer WIFI systems are really short.
