I have two homes, one with eight Sonos 2 devices which now, finally, after eighteen months of not having music, actually play something.

Now my other 3 bricked Sonos 5 devices in my other home on an S1 network have started skipping and have become as useless as my S2s were.

Yes, I have tried reboots, resets, firmware, everything recommended (I have spent thirty years in IP network engineering).

I suspect the problem is 2.5/5 network compatibility, but with my current broadband provider I cannot reset this, and even if I did it would break my other networks such as Nest and Ring.

This is just another Sonos f*** up that they need to sort out. Being able to play a music track is sort of the whole purpose of these devices isn't it?
