shouldn't be an issue, since you wouldn't use the Eero to talk to the ISP.
Keep the router your ISP has provided, but switch off the wifi and set it into modem mode.
Then the Eero just handles the wifi side, and the ISP router handles the internet connection.(same deal for Tp-link, Asus etc.)
I'd expect Asus would be pretty good too btw
mesh ethernet backhaul are the words you're looking for
I've got Cat5 through the house and a few Eero routers that each have a Cat5 cable going in
They've worked well for me. Shame you weren't looking a week or so ago when they'd have been cheap on Prime Day.
Tp-Link Deco will have similar stuff, as will plenty others
