Only one Sonos device can be hardwired

Hello, 

How come I can only hardwire one Sonos device at a time? As soon as I hardwire one more Sonos device my broadband connection stops working. Maybe it is caused by a loop. When I used a DSL router this was not a problem. Now I use a Technicolor router for a coax connection. I don't use any switches or access points

Thank you in advance.

Maybe a dumb Netgear switch could be the way to go for me.

If you find it was incompatible hardware and the device isn’t listed you might tell Sonos support.
