Default Any action required?

Just switched to Telus, if anyone could review the setup that would be great. There is a phone line, 2 Optik boxes, and the new Wifi Hub along with the Nokia box. I am not familiar with networking. The fiber is connected to the Nokia, which connects to phone using POTS1 - and using the DATA port on the Nokia it connects to LAN/WAN 4 on the Wifi hub. The eero is plugged into LAN 3 and the PVR is using LAN 2.

I have an eero which I simply plugged in to the modem during my time with Shaw and set it to bridge mode, which avoids a double NAT I believe.
Also, there is an ethernet plugged into the eero which is for an outdoor camera using FreeIP/Hikvision. Will the camera work as is, or will it need to be plugged into the Wifi hub, or should I have to stop using my router?

The tech said I could use my own router (eero), so I would have both the Telus network and the eero network. I was looking to see if I should bridge. The webpage had a warning saying it would stop the Optik TV, so I didn’t set it to bridge. Does a regular user need to change any settings on the network admin webpage when joining Telus? For example, Shaw when set to bridge mode freezes the admin website to view only. From looking online, I have seen using a T2300M to bridge port 1 and I don't think it's possible to plug the eero into the ONT, and I also don't think the new wifi hub bridges only 1 port.

Is there any action that I need to take or any comments? I feel that I would have to be in bridge mode, but because it's already working it might not be needed. I would like to not abandon the eero. There is a stable and good connection, but the Telus wifi app is reporting about 500 download speeds and around 800-900 upload speeds for gigabit.
