Sonos One SL disconnecting from WiFi

Hi,

I recieved a Sonos One SL for Christmas and would be very happy with it, however I seem to have an issue with it where it keeps disconnecting from my WiFi. It will only disconnect when it starts to play a song, and 9 times out of 10 it will disconnect before the song is over. If I don’t play any song the speaker will stay connected to the WiFi without any issue.

I have tried removing my WiFi from the list and re-adding it, however the issue still persists. The speaker is located very close to the router, and I have tested it at various distances but this seems to have no effect. If the speaker is plugged into the router via ethernet cable then I don’t run into any issues.

I have checked that my router settings are set to be compatable with the speaker, and so far as I can tell they are (standard is set to 802.11 b/g/n, and the security mode is WPA+WPA2 PSK).

I have submitted support diagnostics if you need them, the confirmation number is 1165836081.

Thanks in advance!

    hi @Hewy404 from which music source are you playing the songs? is it streaming from a smart phone or music streaming from the internet?

    Apologies for the late reply, I had a little too much red wine last night and I was in no state to be troubleshooting and testing!

    I’ve follow your steps here and it seems to have worked perfectly! I powered down every device and rebooted them one at a time, router first, and now I’m able to play as many songs as I like without any disconnects. I’ll continue to test it throughout the day but if I don’t post here again it’s safe to assume no issues have sprung back up. Thanks for you help here!

    And for posterity:

    What router are you using?

    It’s a Technicolor DGA4231

    The music source is from Spotify on my phone, which is linked to the Sonos app also on my phone

     

    Thanks for your help everyone!
