I turn off the WiFi on my router and use the Eero Pro throughout my facility, 26,000 sq feet. I have 23 of them.

Are you able to turn your Wi-Fi off from your router? If so, use it only as a DCHP server and use your Eero as your Wi-Fi router. Connect the other Ethernet port from the Eero to a network switch. You are then using the same resources for Ethernet and Wi-Fi. You can use the same SSID (same username and password)from your internet router and your Eero Wi-Fi router, however, you may have interfaces from using the radio bandwidth (eg channel, frequency, etc), which will require tweaking your Wi-Fi settings. Good luck.
