Are you a @geteero user interested in using Pi Hole to provide network-level ad blocking? Some lessons from me: 1. Disable all Eero Secure features. 2. Disable HomeKit support in the Eero app. 3. Disable Local DNS Cache. I also recommend reserving IP addresses for all your clients, and specifying hostnames in your Pi Hole’s /etc/hosts.

@cleverdevil thanks for posting this. I have a pi-hole waiting to be hooked up but I've been holding off as I don’t want to mess up the internet lest i face the wrath of my family. I have an eero setup so this is really helpful.
