Plenty of verfied purchasers on Amazon claiming disconnects, slow speed, other issues with Eero. See below link. Eero has 7% 1-star reviews. Orbi has 4% 1-star reviews.
Both products have users with issues. This is not unusual and doesn't mean either product is bad. It just sucks if you're one of the few with issues.
