Someone please explain to me how a system that is working perfectly for months suddenly starts cutting in and out when I add a port (which I have removed).

I have three business grade wifi 7 tri-band wired access points. It is not possible it’s my wifi.

I have taking just about every other thing on the wifi off to check for that.

It streams sonos radio just fine.

I shifted my music from my NAS to my local machine to stream from there.

I switched from my FLAC library to MP3s.

I am at a loss at what else to do.

I see this happening to tons of people on a regular basis on the forums. WTF?

You can also turn off Sonosnet altogether. That option was in the last release.

No radio? How else would they do Wi-Fi and Bluetooth that are both carried over radio?

Not an expert on the radio modules used but often Wi-Fi (2.4, 5, 6 gHz) and Bluetooth are on the same module.

Just an example, probably not the one Sonos uses.

Edit to mention warnings and status checking require the dedication of very limited internal memory. The lowest memory cost option that solves the issue is likely best.

Could probably be done in the controller. It knows.

In the controller option solves part of the problem, maybe the biggest part these days.

For new folks trusting iffy AI suggestions, what about the browser access at x.x.x.x:1400?
