Comes on a user’s forum to ask for help. Users offer help. Proceeds to berate all those trying to help.

So tell me, why would you expect anyone else to chime in?

I work for a university with very strict network policies. The one and only time I was “disciplined” was when I attempted to connect a Play:5 to the university network. Not only would it not work at all, the IT department called my department head within 10 minutes of the attempt. A travel router is definitely the way to go to set up your own personal network for speaker control.

@Stanley_4 thanks for chyming in but man that is not happening. No idea how you came to that conclusion.

I ageee with both statements here.

Few IT departments (if any) would allow a travel router even though it is likely the least bad option.

Yes, it is apparent you have no understanding of how the Sonos system uses the local network.

@Alex1989 Can you please explain what your expectations were when you asked your question? All @Stanley_4 a myself have been trying to do is to explain why Sonos does not work on non-consumer networks, which (at least to us) could be a reason you ran in to trouble setting up the Beam. Why would this not be helpful?
