This may not even be a concern but I have been trying to find something that shows why, even though all speakers connect, the router ethernet cable is showing solid orange.

To what is the Ethernet connected to. Is coming from your modem to router or is connected to a Sonos component?
The issue could be due to a number of things. At this juncture is best to unplug all Sonos. Remove the Ethernet cable from the Sonos unit. Make sure the cable isn’t damaged. Reboot your router and let it come back. Re-Connect the Ethernet cable to the Sonos component and power on that Sonos product. Check the status of the Ethernet cable. If all good power on the remaining Sonos units 1 x 1 and let each come back before moving to the next. Let us know the results.

I swapped the connected ethernet cable for one I know functions properly. Then, I rebooted the modem and router. I also unplugged all speakers and plugged them back in 1 at a time. Sonos network is found but router light blinking orange. The other cables to the router have white lights.
OK…that’s good that’s it’s blinking and not solid. Since you didn’t indicate what Sonos product the cable is connected to I’ll have to assume it’s 10/100 which blinking orange means a slower connectivity speed vs 10/100/1000. That’s normal.
The other indication could be that’s having trouble connecting to the internet which means you should contact your ISP so they can ping your modem.
If you are able to stream audio to your Sonos then it’s just the connection speed. If not contact your ISP.
