Asked by CoolGamer77
I'm the proud owner of an Eero6+ and I've been looking to enhance my network security by disabling the SSID broadcast. In the past with my Netgear router, it was super easy to turn this off, but now I can't seem to find the option in the network settings for Eero6+. I've tried following online guides, but they don't match what I see on my settings page.

It might help keep out casual users, but if someone really wants to break in, they probably can still find a way. Just something to keep in mind!

Have you checked the manual for your Eero 6+? Sometimes the instructions can be found in there. Here's a [link to the user manual](https://www.manua.ls/eero/6+/manual) if you need it.

Honestly, you might want to reconsider. Turning off the SSID broadcast doesnโ€™t really give you better security; it can just complicate things for your devices. Most savvy attackers can still find networks even if theyโ€™re hidden.
