Integrate networks from Boost Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi booster starter packs?

I recently changed from Shaw to Telus based on a customer service representative somewhat overselling Telus advantages to me. For context: I have the Fibre500 and the Boost Wi-Fi 6 in a 3 story townhouse ~1200 sq ft. Unfortunately, we have several dead zones in our house despite a seemingly good connection to the Boost Wi-Fi 6 network. Accordingly, Telus sent us two Wi-Fi boosters in the starter pack to help resolve our deadspots. Upon installation, however, it seems that this just sets up an additional secondary network. Various forum posts and internet searches seem to confirm that the Boost Wi-Fi 6 and the booster starter packs are not compatible, but some posts seem to indicate that they can be compatible.

My question: am I able to integrate the network from the Boost Wi-Fi 6 with the network from the additional boosters?

I'm happy to try to setup and customize a more advanced network behind the scene if need be. Otherwise, I am not sure that the booster starter pack solved my problem as having 2 separate networks in such a small house is unnecessary. For context: none of this was an issue with our Shaw devices and network.

The networks from the booster starter packs aren't even showing up in my Telus Connect app.
