Hi All

I’m new to Sonos and having some frustrating connection issues with my new Arc. I’m using the new S2 app ( updated yesterday ) where the app will only connect from my phone to the Arc when I’m connected to the main router in the living room. if I connect to any of the mini q boxes from my phone the app basically said it cannot find my Sonos system.

 

Due to poor wifi in the house, I need to run power over Ethernet to the mini q boxes or they don’t work hense the configuration.

 

I have other devices connected to the same switch in the games room and I’m able to connect to them from anywhere in the house so this issue is primarily to do with the Sonos Arc ( I believe )

 

Any Ideas ?

 

Thanks In Advance
