I have a home with really thick, dense walls. Will eero still work?

Yes. If you live in a house with dense walls, you probably have trouble getting WiFi when you are not in the same room as your router. By using several eeros that mesh together in a system, you'll be able to get WiFi coverage throughout your home. That said, the thicker your walls, the more difficult it is for WiFi signal to get through them. You may need more eeros to cover a home with extremely thick or dense walls.
