Hello All,I have a SONOS Play 5 generation 1. My Network Configuration is as follows: ATT Uverse for Internet. ATT Gateway is located in My Office and is using WiFi Channel 1 for 2.4Ghz and Channel 153 for 5Ghz I have a Netgear Nighthawk Router in my Living Room which is set up in Access Point mode so it is wired to the ATT Gateway. The Netgear uses the same channels for 2.4 and 5Ghz as the ATT Gateway which is 1 and 153, respectively. Sonos uses Channel 11Now for the issue. I use Spotify to listen to music and podcasts with my Play 5. I can play music without any issues. When I play a Podcast (someone speaking), the Podcast plays for about 10 minutes and then the Play 5 goes silent. When I look at Spotify, it thinks the Podcast is still playing. I can hit pause and then play and the Podcast will play again.Thanks, Bill

I am still having play back issues on my play 5 and ikea symfonisk speakers running on S1 music just stops and may start seconds later or not at all, getting error 1001 ? unable to sort since the introduction of S2 !
hi everyonei had to move in another city as a teacher, i took my play 5 with me, i dont think i’ll rehister to an internet provider. Do you think it is possible to use my device on the shared internet connection on my phone? I tested it many times but seems like it is impossible :(
Hello,id like to purchase and add more Sonos Ones too my setup. I’m stuck on S1 because I have multiple connect amps.Sonos’ official compatibility list says the currently sold One gen 2 works on both S1 and S2. However the shop FAQ for the One gen 2 answers “will it work with S1?” by ambiguously stating “it requires the latest version of the app”This makes it sound like you need S2. Anyone know the truth? I assume it will work but it’s just more unscrupulous pressure to throw out our old systems and buy all new devices
Hello,before posting I tried following the existing guides but without achieving the result I wished.After changing my internet provider I 2 Sonos one SL weren't found on the app(S2). Until so far I have tried factory reset, app reset and tried to set up a new system through Ethernet cable. What I have "accomplished" so far is only one speaker playing and only when it's connected with an Ethernet cable, although WiFi option is enabled. Both of them never worked together. Also when I try without the Ethernet cable both of them have the whole spectrum of led lights blinking. Has someone an idea?? because I ready to give up😩Thank you all in advance
Hi folks, I recently got a pair of fives and I’m having questions on what is the optimal placement for them.The red square represents the size of the image projected. I thought about mounting them on the wall (Numbers 1) but the right side (window side) difficults this situation since the speaker will appear in the image. Left side is no problem since I can get the speaker outside the image. The other options (Number 2 and 3) would be using standing mounts. Placement would be dependent on optimal distance to sitting position (10ft or 5ft). What would you suggest? I’ve read that the best placement is at ear level. If this is true, number 1 is discarded. I’m open to other options but as you can see my space is very limited. Thank you!
I have a Gen 2 sub that’s connected up to a pair of Play:1 Speakers and have noticed that it is not making any sound. The speakers are playing sound and I can see the sub connected up in the app to the speaker but nothing is coming out of the sub speaker! I have removed the sub and reset it and added it back in again but still no sound at all! Any ideas or tips?
Hi, I recently moved into a furnished apartment that has a dualband WiFi, but the SSID for the 2.4 and 5 GHz is the same (and I cannot change it). Now, I am unable to set up my Sonos Play:1, it just stays in the loop of trying to find the Sonos when I try to set it up. My phone can switch between 2.4 and 5 but even when it’s on 2.4 it cannot set up the Sonos. I now have it wired but this means I have to put the Sonos speaker in the hallway which clearly is not ideal. Even when wired I cannot update the Sonos speaker with the WiFi information.I have searched the forum and tried some of the suggestions but haven’t been able to find a solution.Best,Jeroen

I am having another Sonos love/hate relationship that we are all so familiar with. I love these products but why do they have to fail so hard with setup?So, I got a new router…..(I know that’s how it always starts)….I have tried literally everything and I am several hours in. I disabled all the old networks. I disabled wifi-assist and cellular data on my phone. I closed the Sonos App on my computer so that it wouldn’t interfere and I was only operating on the IOS app on the phone. I unplugged my other Sonos devices. I plugged the One SL into the router with a hardwired ethernet cable. I made sure the phone was on the right WiFi network. I did reset the Sonos S2 app in App Preferences. I did a factory reset on the One SL. I tried to install the One SL as a new system. I did all of these things multiple times. EVERY SINGLE TIME IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM--it finds the One SL and says I added it to the system successfully, but that the system might not find it. It tells me that if the system
I can’t get this thing to connect wirelessly to my Archer AX5400 (AX73). Is this a new compatibility issue based on firmware updates? I have had Arc and One SL connected to this same router in a different location less than 6 months ago. Now, trying to set up a new system, it fails after I enter the WiFi password.
My sonos speakers wont connect to the new apartment wifi that I have. I have tried an ethernet cable, using other wifis that work nearby and my personal hotspot and nothing will work. How can I set it up to the hotspot?
Can anyone help, please? I brought my Play1 to France on hols. It normally works through my iPad or my iPhone. I can get both to see Sonos Wifi, but then it does not connect. the “System” button in “settings” is greyed out. I have rebooted the router, uninstalled and reinstalled the App, and I am stuck. any ideas, please?
