hi, guys, i need help,

yesterday arrived my sonos, the picture, which  is made  with IKEA,

i got the sonos app, and  i add it , but  when i put the  password,

they said,`please, control the setting modem”,

so  i open the 192.168.1.1, according the advise from app,

i  had divided the wifi, the 2.4gzhz with different name , and model wifi is mixed 802.11 b/g/n,

 

and then i tried again, but  i faild another time , and on app ,they said again` please, control the setting modem`,

so  i thought maybe i was far from modem,

but  i faild again…

What router and mobile device are you using? What operating system version is installed on the mobile device?

    hi, if it is the Symfonisk, you may try to connect it with an ethernet (RJ-45) cable to your router

      Hi @xiehaha 

      Please ensure that your mobile device is connected to the 2.4GHz signal when you setup Sonos to connect to your WiFi. Once the steps are successful, it won’t matter which frequency your device is connected to thereafter.

      If this doesn’t help, I recommend you get in touch with our technical support team, who have tools at their disposal that will allow them to give you advice specific to your Sonos system.

      the DECO M4 will most likely have created a new wifi network - to avoid any confusion it may be wise to deactivate the wifi signal in your (TIM) router to make sure all devices connect to the same network - as suggested by Corry P, make sure your device with the SONOS App is connect to the 2.4GHz network
