I will be travelling later in the year and my baggage allowance is limited.  I do not want to take my Roam with me if I am going to have problems connecting it to the WiFi router of the Starlink connection that I will have in the caravan.

I note that in previous topics people have been referred to the Sonos System Requirements - Unsupported Networks section.

This mentions that “Wireless internet connections such as satellite...” are unsupported.  Does that include a situation such as the one I will have?

I will not want to just send music from my iPhone to it, rather I want to play the radio stations I have as favourites in the Sonos S2 App.

I’ve had no issue connecting my Roam to a StarLink WiFi . Although the need to join the StarLink really isn’t there, unless you’re streaming from a service. I tended to stream from my iPhone directly to the Roam, either via Bluetooth or AirPlay 2, which I could then group with the existing system to get my music to play on other Sonos speakers.
