does a sky max pod replace a sky booster 4, or does each operate for a distinct purpose?

Does a sky max pod replace a sky booster 4, or does each operate for a distinct purpose?

I have a Q box and 2 mini Q, which were supported by a sky booster 4... and used a BT modem.

I have now replaced the BT broadband router by a Sky max modem for fiscal reasons leading somewhat "iffy" wifi coverage... so a pod is being delivered today to supprt sky  wifi max.

Any problems foreseen using both the pod and the booster simultaneously?

Side issue:  I don't seem to be able to access the booster 5GHz as my devices tell me that it is "temporarily unavailable" and the wifi key and ssid  are different to the sky modem 5GHz anyway .  I can connect to 5G directly from the new hub

The pod arrived yesterday... I'm running the booster and the pod simultaneously... and so far  all is well, in fact very well

Q Mini boxes cannot connect to the WiFi from a Max pod.  Max dropped support for the 'Q mesh'.
