sonos move 2 connectivity issue

My sonos move 2 will not connect to my apartment building wifi, and when i try to connect it via bluetooth by pressing the bluetooth button on the back it wont go into pairing mode, i made sure everything was up to date and charged, i just purchased the speaker a few days ago and still havent been able to enjoy it, is there any fixes?

My sister in law was living in an apartment that provided WIFI for all renters. I could not get her Sonos speakers to work with that setup. She got a mobile hotspot and uses that when she wanted to use her speakers.

Unfortunately, that type is network does not work with Sonos. You will either need to get a mobile hotspot or  apply for your own internet service if the apartment complex allows it.

EDIT: I believe once you have the Move setup, you do not need WIFI to use it as a Bluetooth speaker. You may only need a second phone to do this.
