Last week, for about the 20th time in 2 years, my Sonos Play1 wouldn’t work.  App did nothing.  I tried to update the app, nothing.  I saw there was a new app, so I downloaded that. Tried to re-pair my speaker or whatever, nothing.  Then suddenly it works.  No problem.  Everything fine.  I think finally, a new app, this will be better.

Today, nothing.  NOTHING.  Tried to re-set it, won’t work.  Won’t recognize it.  I’ve spent hours on this.  SO frustrated.  The speaker sounds great when it’s work (which is only maybe 50-60% of the times I’ve tried to use it).  Bluetooth would be so much easier!

Yes, I know this doesn’t have Bluetooth. I just spent over an hour on the phone with customer support, and we could not resolve it, but that was basically what he was saying as well.

Setting up “reserved IP addresses in the DHCP table. “ is beyond my knowledge/capabilities. nor do I think I have a manual for my router somewhere. 
But thanks for replying  
 

This may sound overly simplistic, but I had the same issue and after rebooting my router, speakers and Sonos Boost to no avail, I pressed the button at the top of each of my Play 1 speakers for several seconds (the button with the stop/play symbol) and all of my Play 1s  sprang to life. 

 

I have one Play 5 and 4 Play 1s. I transmit music from my iTunes app via Airplay. When I click on Airplay, only the room with the Play 5 appears. I click on that room and then open the Sonos 2 app which shows all of the rooms where I have any Sonos speakers. I then simply check off the rooms with the Play 1s where I want to transmit music and I’m good to go.
