Question on mesh systems and Access Points. I have an eero pro system that doesn’t use ethernet to connect. Only a wireless backhaul.

I want to run a ethernet to my detached garage where the eero system is weak And extend my network. Is it as simple as running a ethernet cable from a switch to the garage and adding an Access Point?

I want to be on same network so I can control my Sonos speakers in the yard. So need to extend same network like a mesh, not like a repeater.
