Built around a quad-core processor and a set of powerful radios, each unit in this eero TrueMesh Wi-Fi system has a maximum 40-foot range
 

I have an existing Verizon modem/router with Fios internet service. will mesh WIFI system then replace my router but is it going to work with Fios? We have an upstairs bedroom that is a almost dead zone with existing wifi.

If you can put the Verizon modem/router in bridge you can let the eero handle all the WiFi and Ethernet routing

I am considering the Eero mesh system. 1) Can I add an ethernet switch by connecting to one of the ethernet ports? 2) If I decide on the 3 eero system (instead of the 1 erro + 2 beacons) do each of the Eeros need to be connected by ethernet?

Yes my eero pro 2nd Ethernet port is connected to a gigabyte switch.
No if you go with the pro 3 pack the other 2 units will work with WiFi connection to the main router

I have just signed up for a 1-Gig download speed with Spectrum. Is the Eero designed to provide 1-Gig?

No you would need the pro WiFi 6 model for that

Costco sells the Tcl 55r613, how big a difference in features, compared to the Tcl 55r625? Personally I feel the 55r613 must be older in age. Thanks Jay.

The biggest feature is the QLED panel for brighter picture and colors.
