I have several speakers , I have a bridge that everything runs through . Play 3,play 1 and bridge came with my kit when sonos 1st came out,now I have 3 play 1s newer era 2 beams a 1 arc and sub 3 . My app has been giving me an error code and let's me connect once or twice a week . The bridge is dated I know but still controls everything when I disconnect it nothing connects . I still have all speakers connected.  What do I do?

Remove the Bridge. Cable on of your speakers and run on SonosNet.

BRIDGE is indeed dated, and when it goes ‘bad’, there are all sorts of potential difficult to track issues. As @nik9669a suggests, press one of your other speakers into service to replace the BRIDGE, or, now that things have continued to evolve with routers, just hang your system off the WiFi signal directly.

Hook an Ethernet to any of your current speakers and disconnect the Bridge.

Follow the steps to connect your Sonos to WiFi instead of Ethernet.

Sounds like you are on S1 software, DO NOT accept any offers to update to S2 or the new Sonos app you are given.
