I'm not up on 'Mesh' tech, but every hop has to introduce *if's* into the picture. CAT5/6 to the main router
Im not sure I understand much of this. Are you saying there may be a solution yet? From my 5 seconds of research it looks like bridge mode will disable the mesh?

This from the Bridge Mode link above

"Bridge mode will only work if you’re using a single Wi-Fi device. If you want to create a mesh network with multiple devices, your router or primary Wifi point cannot be in Bridge mode."
My main Google Nest WiFi point is in our garage, it would be highly impractical to run a cable through the house to it (about 35 meters away, I'd have to run cables through the roof)
