Hi, welcome to the community.

Channel 145 is actually on 6665–6685MHz, which is part of the 6GHz. I wonder whether you might refer to channel 149 (band 4).

If your T3U Plus is on EU version, the hardware does not support band 4 yet.

You might need to use 2.4GHz only, or change the 5Ghz channel on Eero to band 1(channel 36-48)

Thank you very much and best regards.

Thank you very much for both the speed of your response and knowledge. Much appreciated.

I checked and of-course you are right - I should have typed 149. 

Sorry that the T3U Plus doesn't support band 4 yet. I have a different Asus laptop using a Mediatek internal card and that can see the channel and uses it.

I'm afraid the Eero connected to my FTTP ONT doesn't allow a change of channel number so that possibility is ruled out.

I am in the UK so I guess the T3U supplied by Amazon is for EU regions?

Just wondering if in the future Tp-Link decide to support the band 4 - would that be a driver change of would the hardware need to be different?

Just speculating really, but thanks again as it saves me trying various hacks!
