A:AnswerI am using the Linksys switch with a new Eero Pro. I needed more Ethernet connections than the Eero router provided. I was formerly using an Apple Airport Extreme router which had more ports than the Eero. The switch seems to work fine. I don't have a Google wifi system so I don't know how many ports they have. The switch has a power cord.
A:AnswerYes they will just not have as much bandwith as the cat6 so if ur having poor loading speeds iwould replace them with cat6 cables otherwise they will work fine
