Hello. Thanks in large part to the support from these forums my system has been working just fine since I installed it and worked out the kinks. That’s about 1.7 years.
Today one of my sub-woofers just randomly started dropping out. I’ve long ago assigned IP addresses to everything in the network so it’s not that. I decided to look at the “about my system.”
In my set-up, I have around 19 speakers with many (not all) of the devices connected by ethernet. Some speakers are paired as part of a left/right stereo speaker and some are paired with a sub-woofer.
Every speaker in my system shows as WM:0. I don’t have any WM:1 or WM:2. I don’t understand that? If one of the speakers is not connected by ethernet, should that be WM:1? Or do I misunderstand how that works?
In my case, the Kitchen Amp may be connected by ethernet but the sub-woofer is not, so I’m not sure if that’s WM1, 2 or 3.
I’ve attached my Network Matrix just in case anyone needs to see that.
I’d like to make sure there is not something here that is causing the sub-woofer to drop out for some reason. Would like to make sure I understand the WM issue as I’m confused by what I’ve read versus my system. Thank you!
One edit after I posted: I found another thread here that says WM:0 can also mean it is connected to an ethernet-connected unit using SonosNet, so maybe that’s why some of my devices show as WM:0 though not connected by ethernet. But shouldn’t some still be WM:3? Or does that mean not using SonosNet? I don’t think any of mine are using the house Wifi, so all ethernet or SonosNet, if I understand all this correctly. Thank you!
