Question

connection

Hi, I cannot connect Sub Mini to Beam Gen2 according to the instructions. How can I make sure that sub is connected with my wifi correctly? When I update my network in settings of Sonos app everything goes well and got confirmation that sub has been connected.

That seems odd. I’d definitely try a reboot (power cycle)  of the Beam, the Sub mini, and your router.

When the Sub is ‘bonded’ to your Beam, it isn’t technically connected to your router, but instead the Beam, and gets a proxy IP address through the Beam from your router. And since the Sub (and the Sub mini) must be bonded to another Sonos speaker, you wouldn’t be able to check in the Sonos app before it is bonded, I suspect. 

I’m curious as to why you’re saying that you get confirmation in the app that it is connected, but state that you ‘can’t connect’, two opposing statements. Which is it? What makes you say that you can’t connect? Does the Sub mini show up in the Sonos ‘room’ that contains the Beam?
