I never even tried the autorouter on Eagle.
I used to... and then realized just how bad it is. Now I lay out everything by hand. The only decent router companion I encountered for Eagle was the external, java-based push-pull freerouting: https://github.com/nikropht/FreeRouting
That is a beautiful set of code, i.e. a router that respects various signal requirements. I haven't used it in a long time... but would if I had complicated boards. Where it really shines is illustrating how different component layout strategies can complicate or uncomplicate connections between components.
