hooking system up to new wifi

I just went to Google fiber. I'm trying to hook my system up the the new wifi. Does one of the components have to be permanently wired via Ethernet to the router or can I connect the play base , and two Sonos One speakers wirelessly to the new wifi. I've tried hooking each component via Ethernet to the router to try to get the system on the new wifi but when I disconnect the system disappears.

How was it set up before?

Easiest option is t set the new router SSID/password to the same values as the old router.

If that isn’t available for some reason, https://support.sonos.com/en-us/article/connect-sonos-to-a-new-router-or-wi-fi-network

Regardless of duplicating the old WiFi SSID/Password or not, reboot everything after replacing the router.
