I have just gotten a Sonos, and I am trying to add the content services now.
I added Spotify successfully but DR lyd is failing repeatedly. I have entered my location in Denmark so it should be possible, but every time i try to connect to it gives me message saying “something failed, try again” without much explanation as to why.
I have tried reinstalling both the Sonos ans DR lyd app, changing my DR lyd password, but nothing has worked so far.
Any ideas?

I’d look at a several things. First, I’d double check the account location settings at www.sonos.com, and ensure they’re set properly. Likely they are, but it is worth double checking. Next, I’d reboot both the router and Sonos devices. I’d also double check for any potential software that might be port blocking, like work profiles, VPNs, virus protection, etc. Finally, if none of that works, I would submit a system diagnostic within 10 minutes of experiencing this problem, and call Sonos Support to discuss it. But don’t post the resulting diagnostic number here, they get sensitive about GDPR.
There may be information included in the diagnostic that will help Sonos pinpoint the issue and help you find a solution.
When you speak directly to the Support staff, they have tools at their disposal that will allow them to give you advice specific to your network and Sonos system.

I did everything you said apart from calling the support staff as I had not been home in the available hours this week. It still did nok work… until I randomly decided to try again late last night and it got through.
thanks for the help. Still confused, but something worked, so I am happy.
