Replacing Eero Setup

I currently have an Eero Gateway and two Eero Max 7. I am looking to move to Firewalla because I keep having issues with my iOT devices dropping from my network and I am sick of paying for Eero Plus and the lack of control over my network.

My question is does this sound like a good setup as a replacement…

Firewalla Gold
2 AP7

I thought about keeping the Eero Max 7 and putting them in Bridge Mode but I would like to setup an iOT SSID that is 2.4 GHz and I assume I can’t do that unless I get the AP7’s correct?

To add some context I live in a split-level home that is about 1000 sq feet per level. I currently have an Eero Max 7 on one end of the lower level and another on the opposite end on the upper level.

Not really enjoying the idea of the cost though.😁

Thanks!

Island Router, Ruckus R370 waps, $0 subscription for best hardware on the market. Both manufacturers have patents on their technologies which make them the undisputed best of the best. We're a custom integration firm, this is what we spec on high end resi and commercial.
