Hi,

    Anyone experience any changes withthier APP and System just by changing DNS in router? I basically changed out Spectrums DNS to Cloudflare and it killed the functionality of my app and system.

Thoughts?

I’ve been using Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1) for a few years without causing any Sonos issues. 

But changing the DNS in the router might sometimes require a router reboot - have you tried doing that since changing the DNS?

Amazing…Google DNS Works on my Win 11 rig with Sonos app but not on my Iphone …… reboot of iphone fixed it. However Cloudflare still wont work . Ill close this up now.

Yes, changing DNS settings can sometimes impact app and system functionality. Cloudflare's DNS might have different settings or restrictions compared to Spectrum's, which could affect how your app connects or functions. You might want to check the app's network requirements or try reverting to the previous DNS settings to see if that resolves the issue. If the problem persists, consider reaching out to the app’s support for specific guidance.

Hope this helps!
