OP here:
I purchased an Eero yesterday (3 unit 2nd gen and 1 beacon) and received it around 6 PM. It was set up and has now run 16 hours without a single disconnect among 62 continually connected devices, or disconnects from another 30 devices that connect periodically as measured by a Fingbox, not anecdotal observation.
Other than having to enter about 30 port forwarding rules via an app versus a web interface, the setup was brainless and provides great feedback on node placement signal strength!
My RBK50 system with a router and 2 sats is packed in its boxes and on Craigslist. So glad to finally have stable wifi thanks to Eero!!

I just monitored for 5 minutes and my CPU load is kept above 90% while hardly 1 or 2 devices are online.
Yep, the entire wireless part of the router resets about every hour... SSID's disappear and it cycles. I can see it occur on a WIFI monitoring app I run on a distant Surface Pro 3 I use as a photo frame.
Something is borked. and it overheats, and then restarts the wireless.
