Hi, I use a sonos five at work. we have just moved office. the previous wifi net work was a normal password only network.
my new network at my new office has username and password enabled. I reset the sonos when we moved and it only asks for password during set up.
what can i do to get this set up?

Sonos doesn’t support networks with a landing/login page.

I think all you need to do is wire the PLAY;5 to your new network with an Ethernet cable. Using the ‘network’ controls in the controller, you’d set the new SSID and password, per the new router - installation instructions FAQ.
However, if things on the network side have changed, and now requires you to ‘log in’ on a network page to access the Wi-Fi, Sonos doesn’t support that.

Maybe a travel router could work through this, but I can imagine complications. The controllers would need to be using the travel router’s WiFi, not the office WiFi. This would be mildly annoying, but probably workable. A big complication would be if the office WiFi wanted to be super secure and require a fresh login periodically.
