CR100 won't connect, but iPad, ZP80, ZP100 are connected and working a-ok!!

rruotolo · 2014-12-07T17:39:00+00:00

Everything used to work perfectly….Then it all stopped working…so, started by rebooting my router. I then hard-wired ZP80 and ZP100 via Ethernet to get them to connect. SUCCESS! I can now control them both on my WiFi network from my iPad SONOS app. That's all good! HOWEVER, I cannot get the CR100 to associate with the ZP80 or the ZP100. How can I get the CR100 to re-join the party? I've tried putting both ZP80 and ZP100 into the paring mode (pressing MUTE and VOL-UP)…and they both blink amber…but the CR100 just stares back at me, and eventually times-out. When it times out, after a few minutes, it says that no SONOS components are present, but I know better…and so does my iPad, which has no problem controlling both units. I've also tried resetting the CP100 by pressing the following sequence: <left soft button> <middle soft button> <mute button> <middle soft button> <back button> ..then scrolling down to "Turn Off CR" ..and pressing the Enter button Once I put the CR100 in the dock, and it reboots, I try to pair it again…but no love. Thanks. BTW, see 4195270 diagnostics…which probably won't help, given that the ZP80, ZP100 and iPad are working just fine. It's the CR100 that can't see the other units, so it's likely not going show up in the diagnostic report, either.

Hi Sonos support,

I have the same problem with one of my CR100 (the other one connects ok). Are you able to send me the patch please?

My diagnosis submission reference is 6116363

Hi Jubril,

I've applied the patch to your account. You should be able to connect your CR100 once you've run updates on your system.

Thanks Jeff. It's working now.

Hi Paulnolanuk,

I've updated your account to include the patch. Please run updates on your system then try to connect your CONTROL. Let me know if it doesn't work.

Hi Altobabs,

You should now be able to connect your CR100s once you've run updates on your Sonos system. Please let me know if you run into any troubles.

Hi Everyone,

As of the 6.3 release we will no longer be able to apply the patch we have been using to get your CONTROL (CR100 and CR200) associated with the rest of your systems.

If you have a CR100 or CR200 controller which is not up to date and is not yet associated with your Sonos system you will need to call our support line for help in getting your CONTROL connected.

Our phone number and hours can be found here.

Hello Jeff,

I have the same CR100 problem and luckily a Bridge at version 6.2 can you apply the patch to my temporary Sonos setup (SonosID 109318675, Diagnostics reference 6447735)?* I'm guessing via this method I can update the CR100 to the latest firmware (is now at 4.0) and hook it up properly to my main system or else adding the Bridge temporary to my main system.

Thanks in advance and kind regards, Maarten

😉 on second thought I guess applying the patch might get a bit problematic with an outdated system firmware... but well, curious on your reply.

Hi Maarten, we have escalated this internally, our Engineering Team will reach out to you via email under reference: 160815-000463

I just purchases a used ZP100 and CR100. The owner says it worked fine since day one, but now it stopped connecting.

sent Diagnostic report 6511318

please send patch herb@shaw.ca and I'm not sure if the unit is still registered under the previous owner.

Thanks

Evening all,

Just had a move around in the house and the CR100 won't connect . I've submitted a diagnostic report with No. 6567089.

Many Thanks

Hi Fiona,

There's a CR100 showing up in your diagnostic report. Is this a different CR100? Has the CR100 which won't connect been connected to your system before? Has it been factory reset?

Dear greatest support staff, I have a similar issue with one of my two CR100, it will not connect. I have submitted a diagnostic 6603961, and maybe this patch would do the trick? I didnt use the controller for several years, and may think it is lagging in updating?

System is up to date as far as I can see except for this controller. System is connected to internet router via Lan from a Sonos bridge.

Looking fwd to hear from you. Btw, I have for some reason registered the system under 2 accounts, xxxxx@gmail (2011), and xxxxxyahoo.com 2008).

Hi

I think it was this thread I used before...here goes!

I had a CR100 connected that worked after running a diagnostic on my system. I recently changed broadband provider and had to set up my system from scratch, now the CR100 isn't connecting to it. Can this be set up again?

Edit: I've just read the reply above. Do I need/can I have a case number to call please?
