Never buy SONOS products

I have a few SONOS products, but the amp that I bought suddenly stopped connecting to my WiFi. I spent 4 hours with their technical team with ZERO results.

Buy products that are simple to deal with rather than these products that even the technical team is unable to help.

A PAIN and waste of money

And so… what is your question?

Many, many thousands of us have perfectly functional systems.

What are the error messages? Were you dealing with the SONOS chat bot or human phone support?

… And you were likely told that the Wi-Fi module is faulty.

It falls to identify the WiFi signal. We have followed all the steps suggested by the customer service agent (not chatbot), did factory reset twice and yet it didn’t help.

four hours of intense step by step process was extremely exhausting and yet ended with no change

​@Dr Karan, If you connect the amp to the router using an Ethernet cable, does that work?
