Feature request: Reboot All Devices Option

I have assigned new IP numbers to all of my Sonos devices so that they line up prettily in my DHCP server's list. I know that was totally unnecessary but I was bored. So now my system is glitching even after all the DHCP assigned addresses have renewed. I know what is needed, rebooting my tablets running the Controller and all my Sonos devices but that is a real pain due to some of the Sonos devices locations.

What I'd like to see is a "Reboot All Devices" option on the advanced settings menu so I don't have to crawl / climb around the house pulling power plugs.

Not in the last 4 or 5 years, nope. That's when I assigned reserved IP addresses to all of them.

Airgetlam - you mean to tell me your Sonos never goes AWOL? No way, not buying it.

Same goes for me. After having chosen reserved IP adresses some 8 years ago Sonos never lost connection. Worked and working like a charm.

I have had one problem in ten years of use, and I still think that was a result of some errant UPnP event coding by me. Mind you I've nether bothered with IP assignments as I choose my routers with care.

Since I assigned static/reserved IP addresses to all my Sonos gear the problems have been much rarer, usually caused by power dips rather than loss/restore situations.
