How to prevent 'wired' backhaul via Sonos
I have the same issue. This has caused me weeks of broken functionality. 20 Sonos speakers, AC3000 Orbi with 3 satellites. Could managed switches with a VLAN for Sonos solve it? Why is this happening...
Glad to know that the issue is now fixed!
It's not, I just can't have Sonos with wifi on plugged into 2 mesh nodes. Only one plugged in with wifi on, and all you want plugged in with wifi off. A proper solution would be great. Maybe it's something fundamental with the protocols that can't be fixed. Something as simple as FORCING Orbi to use it's 5Ghz wireless backhaul and disabling the potential "wired" mechanism with a checkbox would help. Just don't allow the device to switch over to "wired" in the status panel.
