I don't really understand why the server can ping things on the 10 vlan and get a response but the things on 10 can't.
This sounds like VLAN 1 is the Native VLAN, if Omada has such a thing.

Modern power supplies are usually of the switching variety and are not line frequency sensitive.
If it's an old-style analog power supply, a higher line frequency than the rating is OK. It may not be as efficient, but it will work. Using a lower line frequency than the rating will cause additional heating.
TL;DR, you should be OK.
This article may have some more info. The way that I'm reading the article, the Eeros create a virtual switch fabric and to correctly do that the Eeros need to know what's connected to each of their ethernet ports and each their WiFis.
What I cannot figure out, is if everything is wire-connected to the first downstream port, will the virtual fabric be correctly set up. I cannot see why not. The Eeros should be able to figure out where everything is (relative to the Eero's) whether wired or wireless and, thus, forward traffic in the correct direction.
It only seems like there may be a problem if an Eero is not at the entry-point/gateway/router for the rest of the network or the Eeros are all configured in bridge-mode.
To keep it simple (don’t want to cut/terminate my own cable) I’m getting a female/female wall plate.
Does this mean that you want to use a patch cable behind the wall?
If so, make sure it's CMR (riser/between floors) or CM (not between floors) rated.
It depends on the capabilities of your switches. This Cisco article has some foundational info.
Depending on the number of switches, VLANs and trunks, this could get exponentially complicated.
Getting it to work would definitely earn you bragging rights.
In all likelihood, the 'modem' is a router and each apartment is on a switch port routed through the ISP's router.
A firewall-only solution will protect the devices that you have connected to the ethernet port in your apartment. Juniper, Xophos, etc.
A firewall-only solution is not typical of consumer-grade equipment. If double-NATing is not a problem, your own router is the solution.
