Hi I want to take an old Play 5 & use it from a similarly old iPad mini at work on a different network. Do I need 2 accounts? 1for home & another for work?

No, you don’t. Sonos will detect the different “households”.

Are you going to connect the speaker and the iPad to a company network? Most of these networks are made so connected device can’t see each other, but Sonos need your phone t connect to the app.

Hi. Thanks for the reply. I have managed to pair the play 3  with an Android phone rather than the iPad. It took a few attempts to get the phone, Wi-Fi & speaker to communicate but I am set up now. Thanks for your help & time.
