Need advice on eero layout for long narrow house

I have a long (~60ft) narrow house. Internet connection is at one end of the house. We have been using 3 2nd-gen eeros, spaced in a line. With the 2nd 38 ft from the gateway and the 3rd 22 ft from the 2nd (and 60ft from the gateway). We just upgraded our fiber from 50 to 500 and ISP just sent us a new eero 6E. Most of us seemed to be doing just fine with the older system, except teenage son who is a gamer (his room is between the middle and far eeros).

Here are my questions:

  1. Will the 2nd gen eeros work with the 6E as a gateway?

  2. Should I replace the 2nd-gen eeros with two more 6E units? Would one more be enough? It looks like most things in my house are connecting through middle eero (even things in the same room as the far eero).

  3. Should I pay someone to run cat-6 through the attic and walls so I can put the gateway 6e more centrally in the house? Could I get away with just one eero unit if I did this?

Can't access account online

Anyone else have this problem?

We have had frontier fios for over 10 years (back when it was first part of Verizon FiOS). Now that Verizon owns it again, we are trying to get the Frontier/Verizon discount, but we can't get the online account to work.

If we go to the Frontier website, we get as far as the security code screen. Whether we select phone or email, we never receive the security code. Spent an hour on the phone with Frontier and they said they fixed it, but still not working.

Any suggestions?

Tricks for scheduling primary care appointments

Any good tips or tricks for getting an appointment with primary care when nothing is available for a few weeks out? For example, someone once told me that they release a few same day appointments every day around 2am. Does that really work?
