New User cannot connect to exist system

Trying to add my wife to our system. When she downloads S1 and goes to join existing system, it’s not found. She is on the same WiFi network as the system, has tried deleting and the reinstalling the app, to no avail. This shouldn’t be this difficult.

I see all updated.

I would not factory reset.  I would contact Support.  They can remote access your system and see exactly what is going on

S1 and S2 are installed on my device. S1 works. Having S2 installed or not has no bearing on my problem.

My best guess is that te compatibility checker is greyed out because it has already been run and upgrade to S2 refused (which is entirely your prerogative, of course. 

But as you say that's now neither here nor there.

OK...are you running both S1 and S2 setups?

No, S1 only. I don’t have S2 installed.

OK...do you have a Bridge or Boost installed? If so remove it.

Can’t upgrade to S2 successfully if I wanted to being that the compatibility tool is now greyed out even after deleting S2 app entirely.

App is the only thing that needs to be updated. Which downloads S2 and replicates the problem I posted.

OK...at this juncture I only have two suggestions (in no particular order):

  1. Factory reset all speakers and setup under Sonos App (S2).
  2. Call Sonos Tech Support on Monday
