I had this exact issue about a year ago with an additional boost I put on the network.
My speeds for that network segment dropped to under 10Meg (which is the limit of the boost).
How many boosts do you have? How many speakers? How far apart are the speakers and boosts?
Just to validate: Are your Sonos speakers on SonosNet or Wifi? (I recommend moving them to their own network)

Alle speakers are on SonosNet, currently 2xBoost in network, one wired to RBR850. Amount of speakers more than 10, physical distance of some is close. SonosNet shows a few yellow spots in the matrix, with additional Boost connected to RBS850 it shows alle green. Would be perfect if this RBS850 does not switch to wired backhaul.
