    I find I need a couple of hard-wired connections to some hardware. Can I run my eero devices through a normal router ? That is, incoming Inet to modem to router to eero??

    Can I connect Eero to existing router?
    If you have a separate router and modem, don't plug your gateway eero directly into your modem, as the eero app suggests. Instead, plug your gateway eero into your existing router. ... If you have a modem/router combo device, simply plug your gateway eero into the combo device and follow the setup instructions from there.
