Hi there,  I have two play ones and a beam, all run wirelessly. App has stopped working, surrounds and beam still working, but had to turn off surrounds last night as the app not responding so I couldn’t turn bass down etc…….;((…….have done the usual, power off to speakers and beam, disconnected router, got it all working and this morning app won’t load again…...Spotify can’t find the lounge option to play music ……..aaaaaaaaaaghhhhhhhh

 

any ideas …...thanks for reading …...🤬🤬🤬

    Check that app permissions have been granted. They may have changed if your controller has updated the operating system: https://support.sonos.com/s/article/3092?language=en_US

    If you use iPhone/iPad try disabling “Private address”: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211227

    Most likely your network is causing this. Have you made any changes to your network, e.g. adding a mesh, wifi extender or similar? 

    If your router broadcasts both 2,4 GHz and 5 GHz try disabling 5 GHz. Some users with similar problems have done so with success.

    If possible try wiring the Beam with an ethernet cable.

    Could be worth reading this article about wifi interference, too: https://support.sonos.com/s/article/3286?language=en_US

    Did you deactivate “Private address” as I suggested?

    If nothing helps submit a diagnostic, post the number here and wait for a Sonos representative to look into it, or call Sonos Support to discuss the diagnostic.

    Hi there 

     

    yeah changed the private address, will try the router 5ghz later on and probably submit a diagnostic in the mean time .
