Because they are owned by Amazon, is why.I don’t understand why Apple doesn’t just buy Eero and sell this. People would certainly pay a premium for this and I always found my AirPort Extreme was super reliable and easy to control from my Apple products. Is it just supporting routers is complicated? The cost of the mesh routers seems to suggest Apple could charge a premium.
Edit: Found it on the Eero website, no WiFi 6 support, I would not buy it just because of that:
Quote: eero supports 802.11a/b/g/n/ac. Currently, there is no timeline set for 802.11ax (also known as WiFi 6) support.
