Sonos app keeps not recognizing my wifi network and wants me to update all my products.  There is only one SSIS in my house

Hi everyone,I was looking for a related issue here but couldn’t find anything.I recently purchased a Sonos Beam Gen. 2 and a Sonos Sub Mini, which I wanted to connect to my TV.After setting up the Beam Gen. 2, I added the Sub Mini, and everything worked perfectly fine in terms of sound quality. I received a deep, very rich bass and was super impressed.However, after unplugging the Sub to do some cable management and then reconnecting it, the Sub failed to deliver the strong bass it had just 10 minutes earlier. I could barely notice a difference in sound whether the Sub was on or off when playing music through the Beam. I tested with Techno and Rock via Spotify over WiFi, so there should have been plenty of bass. Additionally, I tried it with my PS5 and the actual TV, which is connected to the Beam via eARC.The Sub is technically working, as I can hear a very faint bass if I put my ear right next to it.My Sub Mini is positioned in the corner of a 20 sqm room, with about 20 cm of space f

At present: I have the ultra ultimate immersive set; which includes 1. Arc ultra 1. Gen 4 sub 2. Era 300s… but I decided to give it a little bit of an upgrade and I got an +1 gen 4 sub, 2. Era 100s, and 1. Sonos boost it’s been great but for reasons I cannot fully explain I have just purchased 2 sonos amps. AND two of these. (The Martinlogan motion F2s’…. (I intend on using the two floor speakers as stereo)  I am decently familiar with at least some of the requirements to get as full features as possible. But how might I proceed to try and ensure I that I proceed in the way that would provide greatest feature set?  Please also note that my television has but one HDMI arc portThe intended local is my living room exclusively.

My sonos arc routinely will drop sinal/sound. When watching TV, it will routinely drop the sound and go silent. After a few seconds of silence, my TV then reverts back to TV sound while the Sonos arc will flash white and then reboot itself and eventually return. The whole process takes about a min to reboot and is very annoying when watching a show with dialogue or a game. When I pair the arc with my Move to listen to music, it will routinely unpair and leave the move as the only device playing or derail the whole system, shut the music off and make me go back into the app to restart the music. Doubly annoying when I’m listening to a playlist and essentially have to reshuffle. Any help would be greatly appreciated. There have been no network changes since I installed this about a year ago.

I have two older Sonos Connect systems operated with the S2 App.  One of the systems has been suffering from ten second drops in streaming music every 20 minutes or so.   Our router is very close to the system, doubt that signal strength is the issue.   Have tried the usual steps (unplugging etc) other than (1) factory reset and (2) updating the Connect firmware/software. The problem I am having is that while I can log into the Sonos app, when I try to log into the “system” the log in fails.   I figure I need to log into the system to update it.   I’m told “something went wrong try again.”  I am guessing that the system was registered under my old, now inaccessible work email address even though it seems like the app itself works, I can play music etc.We had many issues with the system after the update earlier this year but most of them seem resolved.   Would really like to avoid a factory reset if possible.

Can someone explain why one my system displaying horns can sound like (muffled) blown speakers are blown on various speaker types: beam and brand new 300’s?

I have a Playbar on Wifi in a room with speakers mounted to the wall. Those speakers are connected to an AMP (not Connect:AMP) in another room across the house. I want those speakers to act as a surround to my Playbar.The playbar works just fine on wifi. I have also installed the AMP on WiFi and can play music through those speakers just fine as standalone. However, when I then go into the Playbar and try to "Add Surrounds", the AMP gets kicked off WiFi and doesn't reconnectg. The 'add surround' process seems to go without any errors popping up. But afterwards, I can see that the old standalone AMP is still on the "System Settings" page with a status of disconnected. The Playbar shows that it has surrounds, but those surrounds are listed as missing. Nothing plays on the AMP speakers. I have to factory reset the AMP, then can reconnect, but have tried this sequence a few times with no different outcome. Watching the router, the AMP goes offline fairly early in the "add surrounds" proces

I decided to dip my toe back into the Sonos ecosystem after using the application and product many years ago. I needed new speakers, so I ordered a pair of E100s from Best Buy. I was shocked to see access required for location, network passwords, etc. just to use the app. Needless to say, I'm returning your s***** product because this is egregious!  You’re overstepping here Sonos.…Moderator Note: Modified in accordance with the Community Code of Conduct.

I've just bought a Beam, a Sub Mini and two Era 100s. The two Era 100s are configured as the Beam's surround and it works fine. But I also want to listen to music only on the Era 100s in stereo (without using the Beam). No matter how hard I look, I can't find a way to create a second configuration that allows me to do this. Do I need to create a second room in the application? Or should I link the two Era 100s in Bluethooth? I'm at a loss.   Thanks for your help.

I have a pair of Sonos ERA 300 speakers, they are grouped, and I have a turntable connected to one of the speakers using the Sonos adapter (USB-C/Jack). However, the sound from the turntable only plays on one speaker. Is this normal?

Haven’t used my extra Sonos one speaker in a while and now find that I no longer have TV as a source on my app? What gives? This new app really stinks!

I have recently bought a new Play 5 Gen 2 and was going to sell my Gen 1 on Ebay as it would be a shame for it to go to waste. However, I am struggling to get it to connect to the V1 Controller either via Wifi or via an Ethernet Cable. I have tried my phone and MacBook.The Play 5 Gen 1 just gives the usual “Cannot find any products” so I cant be sure its working properly.When I connected the Gen 2 it connected first time with no issues albeit thats on the newer controller version, etc.Any suggestions welcome as to how I can get the Play 5 Gen 1 connected just to make sure its working ok before I put it up for sale. Thanks

So far as I can tell, it is still impossible to add an album from Idagio to the Sonos queue.   Will this be fixed any time soon?  Classical/opera streaming doesn't really work if you have to add dozens of separate tracks to a queue in order to hear the entire piece.  

Hi - have lots of existing Sonos kit bought 2012 - 2015. Have been managing to use with S1 controller, but about to modernise a little by purchasing a couple of Era100’s (the Bluetooth and LineIn features appeal).According to the Sonos support page, I should be able to use the Era100’s and the newer Sonos app with my Play:1, Play:3 and Boost kit (as they say these support both newer Sonos app and the S1 app).Are they correct?Incidentally, I have always relied on the SonosNet for connectivity (first with Bridge, then with Boost) and connectivity has been excellent, no dropouts.The website says that the Era100 can only either use cabled Ethernet or domestic WiFi - how would this play with the rest of the (older) Sonos kit using SonosNet via the Boost? Or does having the Era100 in this setup mean that SonosNet is a no-no, and everything would be reliant on domestic WiFi?Thanks.

I’ve had a Sonos system running off of a cheap LG NAS since 2011. It works fine, although I use EoP devices and lock the system off from updates and the internet. Now using S1 software.Due to a system crash on a Synology NAS, I rebuilt it to take over the sonos side of things from the LG NAS, as that was starting to demonstrate a few file corruptions. I also installed another newer Synology NAS.The Synology is running DSM 7.x fine, and all shares are available via the network. It also works OK casting using Hi-Fi Cast to a CCA via the line-in on a Play5. However, it consistently fails with an error 1001 when trying to add a library link.Knowing that v7.x made changes to smb access, I downgraded it to smbv1 and checked the NTLMv1 box. It is using the correct permissions and group and also allows smb access to the sonos folder.I also followed a forum users text to include extra text in the smb.conf file, which should have helped.I have been trying to track down the percieved problem with

Updated Sonos app with the most recent update and since then it has just not worked. Every single time I go to use it I have to update network. Everything has been switched off and back on MANY times. It’s so frustrating. 

I have tried everything to get this soundbar to appear on the Sonos app but it says it connects but it won’t appear on my phone. I’ve tried joint existing product, looking for new, factory restarting the thing and even contacted my ISP to see if my firmware is up to date and still nothing. Literally any help at all will be appreciated!

I go through the app and the setup works but when I open my system it keeps giving me an error that the sub is not connected. I’ve tried the hard reset and everything and no dice. 

My system says ‘access to Apple Music has expired.  My Apple Music has not expired .  Sonos not working again- big surprise.I thought I would delete app from my app screen , now I can’t find it in order to fully delete it 

Hi everyone,I recently changed my home Wi-Fi router, and ever since, my Sonos system won’t connect. I’ve tried resetting the router and reconnecting through the Sonos app, but it keeps saying it can’t find the system. I’ve also ensured my phone is on the same network.Does anyone know the best way to get the speakers to reconnect? Should I factory reset them or is there a simpler fix?Thanks in advance for any tips!

Just installed the new app. But I can’t find where the music library went. Also no option to add a folder to the library  Moderator edit: We have an article with instruction on how to add a music library share on Windows and MacOS. Have a look.
