Connect Sonos 1

I have a Beam with two Sonos 1.  When connecting I get the Beam plus one of the Sonos 1 units.  When I try to connect the other Sonus 1 I get a flashing green light but not flashing green and white.  Have tried turning off power and router but the system does not connect the second Sonos 1 unit.

Any ideas?

Remove the Ones as surrounds from the Beam and unplug the Beam and Ones from power for a couple of minutes. Swap the Ones (left speaker is now right speaker, right speaker is now left). Plug the Beam and Ones back in and wait a couple of minutes for them to reconnect to the network. Then re-add the Ones as surrounds following these instructions:

Are you grouping the Ones with the Beam or are you using the Ones as surrounds with the Beam? Are any of the speakers wired with an ethernet cable?

I have the beam connected to the tv via the hdmi cable. I wanted to use two Sonos 1’s as surrounds.  One of the units connects but the second one fails to connect. I get a flashing yellow light but the installation directions says it should be flashing white and yellow.

I have used the Sonos 1’s as a stereo pair in another room.
