Link Rate Problem / Sonos
Hi there! I have two sonos speakers on my Orbi network at 2.4GHz.
One speaker gets a link rate of 54mbps, runs radio fine.
The other constantly pauses, and has a link rate of 1mbps.
Can I change the link rates? Is there a way to reset this?
Thanks!

My Sonos One connects at 5G. If you provide the model numbers of the Sonos speakers, their specs will indicate if they support both bands.
The Link Rate is a consequence of the WiFi signal level. The farther devices are from a WiFi access point, the lower the signal level and lower the Link Rate.
That said, a 1mb Link Rate is suspicious. (Actually still enough for audio, but not typical.)
