How do I connect to a VPN. I use Keezel as a upload VPN device. Sonos will not connect to it.

Sonos devices aren't able to directly connect to a VPN themselves. You could connect Sonos to a router that could make a VPN connection (some routers, but not all, are able to do this), but then everything connected to that router would be able to use the VPN, not just Sonos.

I think I get it ..... create the tunnel at the Router instead of a single device i.e. iPhone. I thought the Sonos Play was being fed data from the device with the app on it, not so. The Play is a stand-alone networking device as in Internet of Things and it does not support VPN itself. The App just acts as a control interface. Thank you ... light bulb goes on !
