I suspect that you Factory Reset something, then added it as a new system setup. In general, as you have discovered, Factory Reset usually complicates the issue.
This may seem like the a messy approach, but it is the most likely to succeed: Power down the PLAY:1 and PLAY:3, then wire CONNECT to the network and power it up. If CONNECT is now visible, power up one of the other units. It’s a 50/50 shot that the other unit will be visible and you’ll have an operating two player system. If you picked the wrong unit, power it down and power up the other unit.
If (and only if) you now have an operating two player system and your Music Library and music service registrations are intact, Factory Rest the third unit and add it to your system as a “New” unit. This scheme will keep your music service registrations and Music Library setup intact. If you will be using the WiFi communication arrangement, make sure that the WiFi credentials are correct before disconnecting anything from the network. After you update the WiFi credentials, allow a couple minutes for this to propagate to all of the units.
Thanks buzz. I will try your suggestion. I think i did try something similar in the past which got me here. Lets see.
Whats confusing me that if i log out of my account i can see Play1 (no account logged in) but under my account Play3.
If you go to Settings -->System --> About My System I think that you’ll find that there are two different Sonos ID’s.
