There is an alternative to what WestCoasterBC suggested. If you can log in to the Boost, it also has a specific smart devices network that can be manually enabled for 2.4GHz devices to connect to. It may or may not be the best solution depending on your needs. The default admin password to log in to the Boost is under the removable cap on the bottom of the device.
1) After logging in, click on the Wi-Fi tab on the left.
2) Click the right arrow in the top right corner.
3) Select Smart Device Network and then enable the top network. That is a specific 2.4GHz network. The password for the network is below it. It is a separate network name and password from the regular wi-fi networks on the Boost. The one limitation is that this password cannot be changed, or at least I haven't found a way to change it.
