On the verge of insanity here. I’ve upgraded all compatible products in my system (Play 1’s, arc) to the new S2 controller to have everything in one place. Plan was to leave my gen 1 Connect (which is incompatible with S2 controller) and Boost on the old app. After much effort I’ve managed to move everything I wanted to the new app. However when trying to now create a new system on S1 for the Connect/Boost I've ran into a wall. The Boost has connected fine, but when I tried to sort the Connect it just won't work. First my S1 app started crashing every time it asked me to enter the WIFI password when setting up Connect. Then when I tried on different device it just won’t work: app will run into problems due I think to WIFI connectivity. The infuriating part is that the Connect is in the exact same place it has been for years with no problems. I’ve tried everything: factory reset the connect, temporarily wire it to the router via ethernet cable and then move back once set up, but app still won't recognise the Connect then either. I have no idea what to try next.
Sonos Connect not working

I would recommend that you call Sonos Support directly to discuss it.
When you speak directly to the phone folks, they have tools at their disposal that will allow them to give you advice specific to your network and Sonos system.
Maybe unplug the Boost and try a Wi-Fi hookup for the Connect?
Might have to wire it for the initial setup.
If you power down all S2 gear it might help can't hurt.
Is this a joke. Sonos had a great system . Now it is shocking. Even the community is laughing at people like me who are not computer engineers
I’ve not seen anyone in this community laughing at anyone.
I don’t even laugh (here) about the true idiots and trolls.
Your issues and questions are perfectly legitimate.
Every time you tweak your software, my entire sonos system in the different rooms go dead and state that the products cannot be found.
The new format is not user friendly.
Please do not change the software.
Each time, I have had to pay money to reset the system.
I cannot find SONOS tech support in Singapore. If there is, Please share with me.
Sales yes, after sales service zero
