Can I change out 2 wifi 6 Telus boosters with different routers?

I wanna be able to use the deco wifi mesh system and I’m upgrading the routers because the ones from Telus are really buggy and I hope I can get the deco wifi mesh system to connect with the Telus NH20T modem/ ont. How would I set it up?.

    The Telus NH20T is the network hub. From there ethernet goes to the boost 6 WIFI and then to the two boost (relays) that you appear to be talking about. 

    If your mesh system starts at the hub NH20T with ethernet I can see it working. Thing is, where does the buggy issue start, I think it is the hub, maybe even the modem. Brief loss of internet is mentioned quite a bit here. So I wondered if it could be buggy with the deco mesh too.

    My NH20T is sitting flat on shelf, yesterday I took off the cover to expose the ventilation holes. It runs much cooler, maybe a solution.
