As long as you use the same SSID and passphrase, your devices should* connect with no problem. If you were using a custom address range, DHCP reservations, port forwarding, etc., then you'll have to do a bit of spelunking through the eero app to find where to configure things - but if you know how to do those things in the first place, then finding them in the eero interface will not be terribly difficult. (It's designed to make a simple install very quick and easy; that means the advanced stuff is hidden from view. But it's not hidden THAT horribly.) * Caveat: some devices will do extra verification to make sure they're not being spoofed by a rogue access point. Most consumer-grade equipment isn't that smart, but it's possible that your security equipment will balk at the change. Check with your vendor if you have any doubts.
