Setup Separate S2 on Same network as existing S1 without effecting then entire S1 setup.

I have scoured the forums and havent see an exact answer to this. 

I even called Sonos support and they couldnt even find my products under my email and account! Bizarre.

I have S1 setup now as follows on Sonosnet channel 6;

- Connect Gen 2 ethernet connected 

- Connect Gen 1 (not s2 compatible)

- Play 5 gen  1 (not s2 compatible)

- Beam, Sub gen 2 with 2 One surrounds 

- One Gen 1

- Connect Amp gen 2

 

So i bought a One SL and want to set this up on same home network, but on S2 app by itself, and i assume with a direct Wifi connection to Router.

I dont want it to affect anything to so with exisitng S1 setup above and dont want to upgrade any products yet.

From ive read, should I;

- turn off the Connect that is ethernet hard wired. Will this disable all the others?

- Run separate S2 app and Setup the new One SL 

Will this then now not affect exisiting setup?

Thank you 

Scott

@stevepow Posting almost the same message in four threads (Join the discussion, ask questions | Sonos Community) does not help in solving your problem - possible solutions will be put in different places on the forum. Plus it should not be possible that your system upgraded without you telling it to, so your problem might not be a problem for every user.

I added a new Roam to my S1+S1+S2 system yesterday and it went seamlessly. Hardest part was the NFC tap to pair it.
