I have Sonos arc at the family room with its wifi password. In addition I have two Sonos Roam in bedroom with different wifi router and password. My question:

If I started listening with the arc in the family room, and I want to continue liststening to the same music, how can I do it with different wifi?

thx

Why is there a second router? If it’s really acting as a router then the network is split and the Roams will never be part of the same Sonos system as the Arc.

Assuming the second router is just there for extended coverage then configure it as an access point.

Then (if necessary) factory reset the Roams and add them to the existing Sonos system.

It’s not possible as these are two different Sonos systems.
