Move constantly goes offline

Is anyone else running into their Move going offline constantly?  I had it running for about a week or two switched the bridge and all Sonos appliances over to a new Wifi and now it goes offline constantly.  I tried bringing it back online on both old and new Wifi Networks and it won’t stay online on either.  Reset with the power, infiniti button onto charger whole nine yards get it to work for about 15-30min then it just stops and it is offline according to the app.

Now here’s the fun part I can tap the play button on the Move itself and it will play a station but I have NO control over the station or skipping and nothing from the app as it shows as offline.  It’s been about 4 days of this back and forth balogna and I just cant figure out what the heck is happening.  Been through every option I can find.  Using\not using True play, using\not using voice services updated the app and everything it’s maddening.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @mboorah.

Welcome, thank you for reaching out to Sonos Community. I totally understand where you're coming from and I’m here to help.

Can you submit a diagnostic report from your Sonos system and reply back with your confirmation number?

Might want to check this link to reduce wireless interference.

Hi all, frustrating and bad to ear that others are facing the same issues then me. I have 5 Sonos products, all working perfectly except the Move which has started to go offline one week ago and it seems to get worst every day. Only a router reboot helps (great...) The move is installed 5m from the router, no wall between or anything.

app is up to date both on apple or Samsung devices

What shall I do ? Get a product exchange ??

Seems that no one really had a definitive solution to fix this

Hi all, it's nice they set up this chat spot for us. What should be happening is SONOS should be replacing the faulty expensive product!

Has anyone had them reach out with help?

Having this same issue-- have had the move for about 6 months, it currently resides on the base (so is always plugged in) and we’ve been having issues for months where it just drops off the system (doesn’t show up on the app).  Happens when I go to adjust the sound when its paired with other devices-- its really infuriating as it’s on, but there is no way to control it.  Can you please help?

Thanks for follow up! Diagnostic report summitted. Confirmation 563014142. 

I have a Netgear Orbi mesh system. 1 RBR50 router. 2 RBS50 satellites. 1 RBS50Y outdoor satellite (details in image).

The outdoor satellite is currently inside, and is the closest to the Move. Only about two feet away when the Move is on it’s charging stand, which is the majority of the time.
