Tp-link P7 and Sonos controller problem

Mesh systems can be tricky. Some notes (though not specific to TP-Link) at

As the problem seems to be with your phone specifically, switching to SonosNet (which is the usual solution) may not help.

hi @dgillier it looks like your mesh network does not work well with your iOS devices and you loose connectivity moving from one zone to another - do you have the same issues while streaming video and moving from one room to another?

@el rubio : No I don’t have any problem with streaming (video or audio software).

What I don’t understand is the controller not being able to connect again to speakers while I’m in another room (after moving).

Because of the mesh. Your router is confused: when your phone switches to a different mesh point it is confused and messes up the SSDP broadcast/multicast, used to find the players. Probably worse when the phone is connected to a different mesh point than your speakers.

Streaming audio or video from the internet is not relevant to the issue here: what is critical is device-to-device communication within your local network, and that is clearly challenged on your network.

Just for diagnostics sake, could you disable the meshed network and check if your iOS devices pick up correctly the cells between the different access points?

Hi @dgillier
