According to Sonos support they must use the same SSID. So if you have SSIDs NETWORK 2.4 and NETWORK 5 they have to use the same SSID even if they are on the same subnet.

If your router doesn’t bridge between 2.4 and 5, then yes they have to be on the same SSID. Mine handles connecting to either just fine.
