My sonos amp is currently connected to my router. We are moving home and our router will not be next to my sonos amp or my two play 3rs.

Is it possible for my whole network to be Wi-Fi in my new house? 

Yes, you can change to a wireless setup.

You should be able to update the Wi-Fi credentials for the Amp using the app when you have that network up and running, however, to get the Play:3s to use the router’s Wi-Fi, you will need to factory reset them.

Edit: if they Play:3s are being used as surrounds with the Amp, I would remove the surrounds prior to the move.


The play 3rs will be in different rooms and will have to be Wi-Fi too. Does that make sense ​@Mr. T

Yes, that makes sense. You can just factory reset the Play:3s to join the new Wi-Fi network.

If you’ve ever entered your current Wi-Fi credentials into the Sonos app and intend to use the exact same SSID/password at the new location, then it would just be a case of amending the new router’s SSID/password and everything should just connect again when powered on.
