TWO Sonos ONE SL, Arc and Sub do not maintain connection

I have a brand new setup with two Sonos ONE SLs, Arc and Sub. 

My room is quite large and the surround (Sonos ONE SLs) are 20’ apart and 15’ from the Arc. The Sub is also about 12’ away from the Arc. 

I spoke with a technician who said they should be closer, but that’s not easy to do. Is there a way to keep the speakers where they are but improve the connection?

Also, rather than use the two Sonos ONE SLs as surrounds, does anyone use them as Front Left and Right speakers? 

Thanks.

You may want to read the wifi interference FAQ. The Sub and surrounds will be connected to the sound bar on a 5 GHz channel. Pay particular attention to anything that could cause interference on the 5Ghz range between the speakers. 

There is no way in the Sonos software to use the Sonos Ones as front right and front left speakers, or the sound bar as only a center speaker.
