Moving a Play One to a different room
I have a Play One that I would like to take to a new location to see if I have wifi coverage before adding another speaker. Can I just move it and use its current name on the app or do I have to reprogram it after the test move? It's just temporary for the reception test. It will go back to original location.

Just move it. Quick and easy. Once it is plugged in, give it a minute to boot and see what happens. That's how I found out I had a signal problem in my home office. Fixed that by wiring in the two Play:5s. I have a dead zone in my sun room that the app struggles with for some reason, but the unwired Connect I have in that area receives just fine.

Thanks much! I didn't want to move it and scramble things. If all goes well, I'll be able to add another Play One.
I have a Play 1 I call Portable, it gets put wherever I am that doesn't have another Sonos device available. It is fun to look at the network matrix and see what device it is connecting to han how good the signal is.

I've got two Play:1s and a Connect for the RV. I've named them with RV in their titles so if I need them inside I can easily bring them in, add them to the system, and return them when I'm done. Of course, I wrote their names on the bottoms with a Sharpie just to differentiate them a little more. You know... in case there is bourbon somehow involved. 😃
