Live Phish

Juist telling is you have a problem does not help the community to help you. Do you get any messages when the app does not work? Is the app part of the Sonos app, of is in separate. Of soms, does in use it’s own connection (like Spotify for example) or do you use Airplay? Could the WiFi in your home react different in the evenings (appartment building)?

A user who had a similar issue to this, discovered it was a neighbours router in use in the evenings when they came home from work which was interfereing with their router signal. In another case, it was suspected someone else was using the WiFi in the evenings 😳, but not wishing to alarm you here, I would consider changing the local WiFi password and when that’s done, to perhaps try a different ‘fixed’ non-overlapping WiFi channel on your router and see if that perhaps makes a difference.

Try the routers 2.4Ghz channel on either channel 1, 6 or 11 and if the router allows set a channel-width if 20Mhz only and just see if things improve.

I’m currently having the same issue. Other Sonos services are working fine. Only impacting LivePhish. 

Have you contacted Live Phish? I think they use a different server to feed your Sonos than they do to serve your phone….

Hi there,

I think I found the issue. We have multiple channels throughout our house and one of them isn't working,  whenever I try to play live phish on that channel and add other channels, it will not work. That channel is called the Family Room, if I start Live Phish on that channel it doesn't work. If I start Live Phish in the Kitchen channel, it works, I can add channels from there. That is why I thought it worked in the morning but not at night.

I would try it on another channel. I think it's an I.T. issue.

Thanks for all the replies. 

Ho there, we did,

Our issue was one of our stations.

It would work on all the stations but the family room.

If we opened live phish on the kitchen station it worked.

So we can start it in the kitchen or any other station and add the family room to the station and it will play through the family room speakers, we just can’t start it in the family room. We have not fixed the issue, we still have to get our IT guy out here.

No real big deal because it still works, just an inconvenience. It was challenging trying to figure that out!

Try unplugging the receivers and restarting them, one by one.

Not sure if you are doing this, but i use the Phish Live app on my Sonos account to search and stream Phish music., Not the Sonos search function.
