Is a ZoneBridge (BR100) = Boost when trying to Google WiFi to work?

I recently got the Google Wifi router/mesh system, which is working like a charm in my overly-connected smart home -- except for my many Sonos speakers (Playbar+Sub+ surrounds, 4 Play 3s, 1 Play 5, and 5 connect AMPs.

I've been scouring the forums for a solution, but haven't come across the definitive fix. It seems like using a Boost is the most common solution.

My immediate question: I have an (old) ZoneBridge (BR100). For the purposes of getting Google WiFi to work, is this equivalent to the newer BOOST, or should I buy a boost.

(My secondary (and perhaps more important) question: in case I have missed it, is there a definitive, succinct procedure to get Sonos and Google WiFi to work?:?

    Wanted to finally put a bow on this thread and say, "It's working!"

    It's hard to know what exactly was the magic bullet, but at this point, it's looking like for me my old ZoneBridge (or its power supply, as mentioned above) was the main culprit. I replace it with a new Boost plugged into the router. After re-linking all the speakers, everything is up and running and seemingly stable now.

    Thank you for the most useful comments and suggestions!
