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

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 Jeff,

I replaced my CR100 (dial was going out) with a recent purchase of another CR100. Could you please add the update to my system. My diagnostic confirmation number is: 4735189

Hi Martin,

I've added the update to your account. Please check your system for updates. Once done updating you should be able to add your CONTROL to your Sonos system.

Hi Kaleb,

Are you now able to add the CONTROL to your system? You can do so by following this procedure.

If that does not work, please send us a new diagnostic report from your Android controller, then reply here with the confirmation number.

I am using the CR100 and it tells me to go through that procedure, but when I push the mute and volume up buttons on my Zoneplayer the lights just keep blinking and the CR100 will not connect to the Zoneplayer.
