Intermittent playback from Sonos Connect

My Sonos Connect is only providing an audio output intermittently to my hifi amplifier. I know it's the Connect that is at issue, rather than the amplifier, because my CD player is also connected to my amp and that is working just fine. I have also checked the Network Matrix, and the connection from the Root Bridge (a Play 3) to the Connect is fine (inbound/outbound is 43/38). Any ideas? Thanks! Mike

    In the minutes leading up to the diagnostic I had the ethernet cable switched out and then connected straight to the router. No difference in playback. Same choppy feed...

    I see that the Lounge CONNECT has both ports being used. Can you tell me what the Ethernet cables in those ports are connected to?

    It really only has one in use. The left one.

    I doubt the unit is still under warranty. It is at least 5 years old.. It still sour to pay $410 for a new one... Is there a way to repair it?

    There would be a charge for replacing the out of warranty unit but it would not be the full price. It's $109 I believe. Let me know if you want me to set this up for you.

    I live in Sweden. Does that change things?
    I would love to have it replaced for a working unit...

    It doesn't change that much really. I'll set up a support case using the email your Community account is under and contact you from that.
