I have five SONOS devices: 2 Play:5 , 2 Connect, 1 Amp
All are currently wired.
I am moving in a while and the new place does not have cabling to the new speaker locations.
I want to change the wired devices to wireless on the same router.
Is it as simple as removing the Ethernet cables from four devices and turning on the wireless (enter the connection information) and then removing the one Ethernet connection, and reboot the other SONOS devices and then all the devices will be wireless?
Can two be wired and the rest be wireless?

I look forward to your support

If at least one Sonos is wired, there is no need to change anything. You will still be in Sonosnet mode, which requires no WiFi information. You only need to add the WiFi information if you are running all wireless.
