sonos 1 alexa stopped working?

Hi.

My Sonos 1 Alexa has stopped working, even on the app?

I tried unplugging both mains lead and ethernet cable for a while, still no joy :(

Can anyone advise me please?

 

regards

Bob

it might be related to a change in country availability for your SONOS system

it works if you just change your address to one in a supported country - you need to supply a credible phone number without the country code

Cheers Albert.

I haven’t moved anywhere lately though. 😊

Is it because I have a constant green light that you came to that conclusion?

Edit

that constant green light has now changed to a slow flashing green light.

have found my old S3 so hopefully get it fitted up, then will contact support tomorrow as advised.

In the meantime, if anyone has ideas of my problem, Pleasae contribute to this thread.

Many thanks 

Bob

Bob,

It sounds like you may have factory reset the device - I say that because of the information shown here in this link…

Thanks for the quick reply Ken.

I must need to go to Specsavers as I didn’t notice (or look properly) at the info you linked me to.

Anyway it makes sense as I have factory reset it, so now I have to  get it up and running.

Being oan old git, I’m not sure how yet.
